Summary: Two destines.
One death.
“Her
kiss could kill us, and my consent signed our death certificates.”
Eric
Welborn isn’t completely human, but he isn’t the only shade in the small
Midwest town of Hayworth. With one year left before his eighteenth birthday,
Eric is destined to win a long-raging war for his kind. But then she happens.
In the middle of the night, Eric meets a nameless shade, and she’s powerful—too
powerful—and his beliefs are altered. The Dark has lied to him, and he’s
determined to figure out exactly what lies were told, even if the secrets
protect his survival.
Jessica
Taylor moves to Hayworth, and her only goal is to find more information on her
deceased biological family. Her adoptive parents agree to help on one
condition: perfect grades. And Jessica is distraught when she’s assigned as
Eric’s class partner. He won’t help, let alone talk to her, but she’s
determined to change him—even if it means revealing everything he’s strived to
hide.

· "Miss.
Thompson twisted the concept of Light and Dark, reversing the well-known roles,
changing the time-old dance and making it her own. Brilliant and true, “Minutes

a world of the supernatural." – Live. Laugh. Read
