The future isn’t real. The past isn’t real, either. Only the present is, solid and full, flying at our faces, our bodies, our hearts and souls at breakneck speed as we work to take it all in. As we work to protect others. And, finally – ourselves. We’ve started to break the bonds of Stateless, a system as rotten as the one it seeks to destroy. But systems are organisms with one brutal goal: to … it seeks to destroy. But systems are organisms with one brutal goal: to survive, whatever it takes.
Kina has to do the unfathomable to save a different system, one she created out of empathy and love for children we rescued from the only home they know.
She’ll use her mind, her body, her spirit — and her ultimate weapons: love, and —
Me.

Holy smokes! What a book! This was everything we needed and so much more. Secrets are majorly exposed. The truth is intense. And every character active or mentioned will shock you. And I loved every second of it. I am not giving details. You have to read the books from the start, but I will say fans of series will be love it. There are moments that will make you feel justified and moments that will anger and tear your heart out. Don’t worry, in the end, it’s all worth it. These narrators continued to knock it out of the park. The perfect voices to bring this trilogy to a close.
Fateless by Meli Raine is a romantic suspense that I listened to on audio narrated by Joe Arden and Andi Arndt. This is the final book in the Stateless trilogy.
This is the first series of Meli’s that I have listened to and it definitely won’t be my last. She did a wonderful job wrapping up this series. I really enjoyed the relationship that bloomed between Kina and Callum over the series.
Joe and Andi did a great job on the narration. I look forward to listening to more of their work in the future.
I would recommend this book if you like romantic suspense, military romance, or psychological thrillers.

Audio Review
This is the final book in this three book series and we watch as our hero and heroin escape their past and move on to their new futures. Everything is still a mystery and what seems up is down and hard to know who to trust.
I really enjoyed this series. It is a lot to keep up with with who is bad and who is good and what is going to happen next but it is a good story and gives you some things to think about.
Joe Arden and Andi Arndt are great. I loved listening to both of them.
I recommend this series but make sure you start with book one.
AudiobookObsession reviewer.
This series has been so captivating, I needed a break before I listened to another book. Each book was more suspenseful than the next. Fateless has it all. The twists and shocking turns, had me on the edge of my seat. I could not stop listening because I just had to know what was going to happen next. Kina and Callum really had to work hard for everything they wanted and that just added to the drama. The chemistry between Callum and Kina really shines in this installment. This is one series I highly recommend.
Joe Arden and Andi Arndt kept this series consistent with their narration. They brought each character to life. I could tell they connected with the characters and made Kina and Callum become more like friends than just a storybook person. Joe and Andi compliment each other and make an amazing narrating team.
First, this is more of a serial than a series. This can not be read alone, Stateless and Traceless must be read first. Normally, I’m not a fan of serials, unless all books are available (which they are). Fateless finishes Callum and Kina’s story.
This was a excellent group of books, but trying to keep all the names straight was challenging. And the use of words that aren’t always common knowledge made me glad for the e-reader’s built in dictionary. (Cuz sorry, I had no clue what the hyoid bone was.)
This is not the normal style of book I gravitate towards, but I’m truly glad I gave this a shot. Plenty of action in all the books, people that Kina and Callum should be able to trust, but can’t, & beliefs/knowledge they grew up with then finding the truth about it.
If you are after a typical thriller/suspense romance this may not be the series for you. I do highly recommend this series, but Callum and Kina grew up FAR from normal. So a typical romance these are not. This did hold my attention and, at times, on the edge of my seat.
Wow ! This final book the series is intense. Questions answered. Many twists that are unexpected. All are trying to take dwn Stateless. Suspenseful, riveting, Strong characters! I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this series!
Andi Arndt and Joe Arden are excellent narrators. telling the story with such emotion. They bring the angst, raw emotion and personality to each character.

This story is a web of deceit, lies and is roller coaster of emotions, if you can imagine that when the main characters have been taught throughout their lives not too have emotions and they are thrust into a world they aren’t prepared for.
A lot of answers were revealed in book three, but this clever author left it open ended for maybe a spin-off series?
Again as in the first two books Andi and Joe did an excellent job narrating.
Reviewed for Audiobook Obsession
You must read Stateless and Traceless before Fateless. I also realized well into this book that it also relates to a previous Meli Raine series I’ve listed to (The Coming Home series), and I wish I had listened to the Breaking Away series and the Harmless series (in addition to Coming Home) prior to this book of the Stateless series. It’s not required, but I think I would have liked the additional background leading up to this story.
I really liked how Meli Raine took what felt like a dystopian story in the first Stateless book and turned it into an exciting contemporary romantic suspense by the time we got to Fateless. Since the individual books in the series all have cliffhangers, it’s more appropriate to release/judge them as a set (not stand alone books).
I listened to the Audible version. Joe Arden and Andi Arndt do a great job with the narration.

Fateless
Stateless, Book 3
By: Meli Raine
Narrated by: Joe Arden, Andi Arndt
What a ride this trilogy has been! From Stateless, lack of feeling and empathy to learning there is life outside the values they have been taught, Callum and Kina both struggle to break free and take down the group. But will they reach all of it’s sects? Do they know just how deep it goes? Will they be able to adjust to a new way of life? There are so still so many questions, event though so many have been answered. This psychological thriller had me on the edge, excited to learn more, sad at some of the outcome and thrilled at others. There are surprises and light at the end of their tunnel. Another exciting series by the talented Meli Raine.
The narration of this trilogy enhances the suspense. Andi Arndt and Joe Arden bring it all out with high angst, feeling the fear of the unknown and the known. They truly made the listen like a movie in my mind and one I will recommend.

Stateless Book Three.
This is the conclusion of Kina and Callum’s story, but the beginning of a new chapter in the saga Meli Raine has created.
Kina and Callum have just left behind everything they have ever known and brought along the children Kina has cared for. Now they must navigate the dangerous waters of the outside world to determine who they can trust and how to live away from Stateless. Kina’s charges look to her to show them what is true and what is false. Callum must trust the men and women he was originally charged with eliminating, including the brother he only recently discovered. Can Kina and Callum truly put their old lives behind them without consequences?
If you’ve been waiting for the conclusion to the Stateless Trilogy, this will not disappoint.

*All of Meli Raine’s series are continuations of the previous series. It is not necessary to read the previous series, but it will give context and you will recognize characters/events better. Think of each trilogy as a complete story for that couple, but part of a longer series with multiple couples.
I enjoyed this story with the engaging characters and plot. This is the final book in the trilogy, and it ended well with a strong resolution. There were some gaps in the mystery, but generally speaking and realistically, there will always be corruption and tragedy befalling humans. It is worth reading the entire trilogy.
When I started this series, I had no idea how full circle this story was going to go! So many unexpected intricate nuances in this series capped off a reunion of familiar characters from her other trilogies. Early on, I tried to predict how this story was going to go, and I couldn’t have been more wrong! If you like stories full of twisty intrigue-filled plot lines, Meli Raine is the way to go! Well done!!

The stunning conclusion of an all-new series by USA Today best-selling author Meli Raine.
One again, we reach the finale of a Meli Raine trilogy, and we’re left wondering, is there still more to come.
Fateless is the third is the “Stateless’ series and it tied up a lot of loose ends, brought old characters back for a look-in and finished off with more of a HFN rather than a HEA, but given the nature of the story, maybe that’s all they have for the time being.
The book was filled to the brim with suspense and danger, the intense feelings shared by the characters hyped the story to new levels of adrenaline punching passion. Twists and turns abound, and when you think you know what’s going on, it all gets ripped away.
It’s a chilling reality that Callum and Kina live in, one they have to fight to get out of. It’s only together that this will happen.
I devoured this book in one sitting, it’s intense, thrilling and un-put-downable.

A fantastic conclusion for this trilogy!
We get all the action, intrigue, mystery and tension we’ve come to expect from Meli Raine and this world, plus a mostly satisfying conclusion for this story arm, especially for Kina and Callum. I say mostly, because this world is vast and convoluted and now that they’ve linked up with the others (Drew, Duff, etc) things are only going to get more complicated.
I’m sad to see this series go, but so happy to have gone on the ride!
