This was a surprisingly interesting story that reminded me of theLux 1.1 Seedsseries andInto the Shadows (a young adult paranormal novel  Into the Shadows Trilogy).  It has time travel, political intrigue and a small hint of romance (hopefully to come in the next book) interwoven with manslaughter, suicide and computer hacking.  I didn't know what I was getting into when I started reading this book, but I was soon involved in the past and future lives of Matt, Farrah and Rick.Matt lives with the pain of killing his girlfriend and teammates in a car accident while driving drunk.  He would do anything to go back in time to change what happened.  Farrah's mom committed suicide when Farrah was 8 years old.  She feels that she could say something or do something that might help her mother changed her mind and live, if she could just go back in time.  Rick believes in government conspiracies and that the government is watching everyone and has secrets hidden in area 31.  It is like area 51, only it has live space creatures and Big Foot.  He has stolen his father's passwords and been able to hack into The Party's satellite connections and witnessed some of the secrets being held.  He wants to join the party so he can be on the inside and know all the secrets first hand.  Matt and Farrah want to join the party so they can use the time travel machine and fix the past.All three are accepted into the Party's summer program and all three have their own agenda.  Rick thinks he is smarter than the Party, Farrah starts to fall for Matt, Matt doesn't plan on coming back when he goes through the time wrinkle.This was well written and a pleasant surprise in a free download. (SERIOUSLY, if grammar errors and misspelled words bother you to the point you can't enjoy the story, stay away from this one.  I never take off stars for grammar as it does not seem fair to the story teller, just warning those that do).  I will definitely be downloading the sequel when it comes out.Would I/Did I buy it? Free DownloadWould I listen/read it again? Yes, for review before the next one comes outWould I recommend it to friends? Yes
