Review: Ever has recently lost her entire family in a car accident and is moved from her home to live with her aunt in California. Not only is her home and family different but she has some new abilities after the accident that she hadn't counted on. She is suddenly able to hear people's thoughts, see dead people, and see aura's so she tunes them out the best she can -- with shades and ear-buds giving her the title of "freak" at school. Then all the voices go silent when she comes into contact with the "new guy", Damen. She needs to learn how to control all the stimuli around her and figure out who this Damen is and what he is and why everything stops when he's around.
As I started reading this story I thought, "Oh man, another Twilight copycat." It really did start off that way but then as the story continued there are definitely some original plots and twists in the storyline which were refreshing. However, it is still the stereotypical paranormal romance so if you're in the mood for one of those then this would be a good option. Don't expect anything too original but there is some originality in it. Also, there is moderate language. Overall, it was an enjoyable escape from the monotony of being a stay at home mom. :)
Rating: *** Three Stars

I read the first 3 books and started the fourth before I decided it was just irritating. Who wants to keep reading about someone who keeps making the worst choices she can make and messing up her life over and over.
