Seventeen year old Jade Sommers life tuned upside down the moment she saw the inch long cut across her face, heal right before her eyes.

Jade thought she was going insane, but her boyfriend Aiden Scott knew better. He knew what she was. And like him, she was born this way.

Now if finding out that people like her shouldn’t exist was bad enough, Jades best friend is kidnapped by the psycho who’s terrorized her dreams. With the help of Aiden, she has to figure out how to save her, before it’s too late.

But what Jade doesn’t know, is not everything is what it seems. She is merely a puppet in a sadistic game to find out what she is truly capable of – and the game has only just begun

My Thoughts

You know how you want to like a book?  You like the concepts of the book, it reads easy, flows well.  But in the back of your mind you keep thinking something is not right.  That was evolution for me- I enjoyed reading it but Aiden just seems a little too perfect, a little too into Jade a little too “Leave it to Beaver” but on steroids since he is evolved.  I did not buy into the whole I didn’t use my powers on you at all even though we have been together for year and a half.  Plus Jade’s mom really being okay with her boyfriend staying over or her spending the night at his house.  It ends with a heck of a cliff-hanger but I still wasn’t feeling it.
