About this eBook

A compelling novel from Jennifer L. Armentrout, the New York Times bestselling author of the Covenant and Lux series.

Dying sucks - and high school senior Ember McWilliams knows firsthand. After a fatal car accident, her gifted little sister brought her back. Now anything Ember touches dies. And that, well, really blows. Ember operates on a no-touch policy with all living things - including boys.

When Hayden Cromwell shows up, quoting Oscar Wilde and claiming her curse is a gift, she thinks he's a crazed cutie. But when he tells her he can help control it, she's more than interested. There's just one catch: Ember has to trust Hayden's adopted father, a man she's sure has sinister reasons for collecting children with abilities even weirder than hers.

But when Ember learns the accident that turned her into a freak may not have been an accident at all, she's not sure who to trust. Someone wanted her dead, and the closer she gets to the truth, the closer she is to losing not only her heart, but her life. For real this time.

There's definitely enough story to continue into another book, but at the same time, it felt like the end was the end. I don't like the Lux(?) Series at all, but I've like her other work and this book too.

Jennifer Armetrout is one of my favourite authors - I am really enjoying her books tremendously - this was nothing like from Blood and Ash or Flesh and Fire but still very very enjoyable.

I loved this book but Jennifer never dissapoints. Would love to read a second book. Your heart breaks for Ember and the hardships she has to go through.
