Constantly teased and taunted by the popular girls, Elena
Baxter desperately wants to fit in. On her sweet sixteenth, she receives two
shocking gifts: telekinesis and the surprising truth about her heritage. With
high hopes that things will be different now, Elena returns to school to find
that nothing has changed. Only this time her hurt feelings and frustration boil
into something even she cannot understand.
When her powers explode, chaos ensues and she learns that
her new ability is greater than she ever desired. As she learns to control her
powers, Elena discovers there’s so much more to her heritage than she ever
imagined.
Excerpt
As
Elena bounded back up the stairs, her mom watched, smiling, thinking about the
last 16 years, and of all this next one would bring. She knew there would be a lot of changes, more so than Elena
could possibly know, and she was looking forward to every one of them. She could hardly wait for Isabel’s
arrival the next day so they could finally tell Elena the truth about who she
was, and help her to blossom and start to become whom she was meant to be.
