See all formats and editions
After seven years living as Alexandra Gastone, Milena Rokva is now free to be her true self, if only she knew who that was or had time to find out. Milena is in a race against time to bring down Perun, the very organization that trained her as a spy. Perun is no longer content to use their network of sleeper agents to protect her homeland and is maneuvered to take control of the world’s energy markets, sending the globe into chaos.

Working with her surrogate grandfather, Albert Gastone, his CIA friend Brad and her old handler, Varos, Milena finds herself embroiled in an epic spy game teamed with friends whose endgames do not necessarily align with her own. The only person Milena can truly trust is herself.

Can Milena take down Perun, protect her fellow cadets and make a life for herself with her boyfriend, Grant, as well as the friends and family she’s come to love as Alexandra Gastone? Buckle in for a wild ride as the Alexandra Gastone duology comes to a close.

Editorial Reviews

Review

Reviews for They Call Me Alexandra Gastone: "An intricate, debut spy thriller...readers will keep turning pages, and the surprise ending will have them anxiously awaiting a sequel." -Booklist "...the intersection of action, espionage, and drama makes for solid...entertainment: readers will gladly sit back and watch Alexandra navigate the obstacle course that comes with playing her role too well. It's a strong debut for New Zealand author Maclagan." -Publisher's Weekly "Death-threats, global takeover, double-agents, hidden files and a blown cover-by the time you get to the shocking conclusion of this cliff-hanger, you won't know who to trust..." -Girls' Life "A solid debut that has both heart and smarts. Clever, solidly paced, and power-packed with a killer voice. They Call Me Alexandra Gastone is a blast to read. A perfect balance of mystery, romance, and betrayal. Bring on the sequel!" - Lindsay Cummings, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Zenith "They Call Me Alexandra Gastone is a politically savvy, thrilling escapade of a girl who's given up her whole life to serve her nation. But as her iron grip on her cover starts to loosen and her trust falters in the mission, the secrets unfold quick as gunfire. I couldn't put They Call Me Alexandra Gastone down-Maclagan's clever, never-what-they-seem characters and authentic tradecraft tidbits lured me in, while Alexandra's resourcefulness against overwhelming odds kept me constantly guessing."-Lindsay Smith, author of Sekret and Skandal
"Brilliant and riveting, T.A. Maclagan has done it again! I could hardly put this book down. Fans of Alexandra Gastone will be thrilled at the twists and turns of our feisty heroine's next adventure." -Pintip Dunn, author of Forget Tomorrow and The Darkest Lie
"I stayed up way too late finishing this book in one sitting. It's classic spy thriller chills mixed with YA angst and romance. Could we ask for more? The tradecraft is whip smart and fun, the danger real, the screws tight. It's a joy to follow Milena as she makes her emotional journey from Alexandra Gastone to an identity that finally fits." - Marissa Kennerson, author of The Family

5.0 out of 5 stars Great conclusion to the duology
Reviewed in the United States on August 22, 2016

A fantastic follow up to the first book in the duology, My Name is Milena Rokva will have you rooting for Milena as she tracks those down who turned her into a child spy. The book is exciting, compelling, dark, yet sweet. I couldn't put the book down once I started reading it, which is why I'm writing this review at 2:30 am. It wraps up the questions raised in the first book in a way that keeps you guessing the final outcome - and satisfies in the result. I can't wait to read more from T.A. MacLagan, though I'm sad that the time with Lex/Milena is now done.

I absolutely love this 2nd installment. Readers will not be disappointed with this series because there are more plot twists & turns,lots more storyline surprises which definitely kept readers on their teeters to get many answers to a lot of the questions from the previous book/series. Good storytelling,well written and very crafty with complex & complicated characters added with the other cast from book#1 that involved the mystery which was at the center of this storyline. One has to read the 1st book in order to get an understanding of where this story started and its direction. Thoughtful,intriguing and lovely ending ..recommended series to everyone

3.0 out of 5 stars Not as great as the first but still worth it

I'm still glad I read this book because it was really nice to have a conclusion and closure to the story. It's not as well done as the first and sometimes feels scattered. I hate to say this, because I love many indie reads but when I read in the acknowledgements that this had been indie published some of the looseness to this installment made sense. The ending was...interesting although I was very happy with who she ended up with and it made absolute sense. Good book and a fine ending.

Content:
Sex - 1 (Some talk of it but no descriptions; mildly passionate kissing {I've seen steamier in sweet romances, so it's very tame})
Language - 5+ (Many instances of sh** and at least 4 instances of the F word.)
Violence - 3 (Spy action and fighting scenes)
18+ (If I had a teen, I wouldn't be comfortable with them reading because of the language. Personal standard of course.)

5.0 out of 5 stars Fabulous
Reviewed in the United States on July 17, 2016
Milena Rokva doesn't have to pretend she's Alexandra Gastone anymore. She's no longer a pawn in Perun's game. Instead she's working against them together with Alexandra's grandfather Albert and his CIA colleague Brad. They have a clear mission, but when Milena discovers who her opponents actually are the situation becomes much more personal than she would have ever imagined.

While trying to be a good girlfriend and a dutiful granddaughter Milena also has to discover who she really is. She doesn't hesitate in a crisis and knows what to do to get the job done, but that doesn't mean she doesn't feel anything. Perun has failed in that aspect, she isn't a coldhearted person who can kill without a problem. Milena's heart is her strongest asset. After everything she's given up will she eventually be able to be truly free or will Perun take everything she holds dear from her once more?

My Name is Milena Rokva is another fantastic action-packed story. T.A. Maclagan has written two amazing books. I immediately liked this second book and enjoyed it just as much as They Call Me Alexandra Gastone. The secrets, the lies and the inevitable coming out of the truth are sensational. Milena finally has the chance to be herself and she has a great personality. I loved witnessing the gradual change and she becomes a stronger person because of it. Her heart is what makes her unique though, she loves fiercely and passionately. That's what gives the story the spirit that makes it so good.

T.A. Maclagan's writing flows easily. I read this duology in one sitting, because I was extremely curious to know how the story would end. There are many unexpected twists and turns and I loved the level of suspense. The ending is surprising and T.A. Maclagan gives her readers a couple of wonderful last chapters, which felt like receiving a birthday and Christmas gift at the same time. I liked these books very much and highly recommend them. There are plenty of thrills, unconditional love and complex political actions, there's a fascinating plot and the ending is sweet. The result is a fabulous complete package.

5.0 out of 5 stars Highly recommended, perfect sequel
Reviewed in the United States on July 12, 2016
Having read book one in T.A. Maclagan's duology, I was so excited to start this one. And the sequel definitely lived up to my expectations. 

I loved that this book is all about Milena discovering who she really is, after she's been living a lie for so long. Her questions and the way she approached this felt authentic. Yet, unfortunately, she doesn't have much time to find out who she really is because Maclagan throws her right into some pretty hefty action. 

This book has everything that I loved in the first book: spies, romance, flawed characters, moral dilemmas... it's all there. But I think I liked this one better. At first, I wasn't so sure of the ending (mainly because I wanted Milena to end up with the different guy--yeah, there's sort of a love triangle, but it's not angsty or anything), but looking back now I can see that the final resolution and pairing is so fitting and it works. 

I'd definitely recommend this book to fans of spy thrillers.
