    About this ebook

    I let him take my hand. The cold blue flame in his eyes held me, seared me. "Do you feel it?" he asked. "It's a warm tingle, isn't it? In your hands, moving up your arms, like a current."
    "No." My hands tingled with warmth. It moved up my arms like a current.

    When Gwen and Adrian meet, they unlock each other's latent psychic powers. It's too bad they can't stand each other, don't trust each other, and do everything they can to manipulate each other. Will they use their power to save lives? Or will it destroy them both? Written in alternating voices, this is a compelling, suspenseful novel about power in all its forms-psychic, physical, sexual, romantic.

      Certainly this was a fast read, as I finished this in just under half an hour. It wasn't too bad, and the writing was believable. I figured that as I am similar to not just one, but both characters I would enjoy it more than I did. Gwen is a "Watcher" (You know seeing as "Watcher" was capitalized I was hoping for something a little better than what she turned out to be.), which means she watches people, figures out their traits and body language etc. etc. This is exactly what I do. Adrian is the one who goes out and pretends to the whole world changing his "face" from time to time (not his literal face, it's more like his way of being and the way he carries himself), and I do this too, only I'm not a player. All in all this book was simply OK, so I'm giving it 2 stars on the goodreads scale where 2 stars equals OK.
