Blurb:
It’s not every day a
girl discovers she’s not entirely human and unlocks hidden powers strong
enough to make even the First Race take notice. Then again, Ava
Michaels is no ordinary girl.
Now, the Race’s Ruling Council
wants her under their control, and that’s just the beginning of her
problems. Her boyfriend, Caleb Foster, has disappeared—accused of
betraying the Race—and Ava herself is implicated in a crime she didn’t
commit.
Clearing their names will mean uncovering a web of
deceit and intrigue with Ava woven right in the center. To unravel the
strands, she joins forces with some unlikely allies; a Protector who
once haunted her nightmares, a young girl with secrets as unexpected as
Ava’s, and a group of rebel Guardians who have their own fight against
the Council.
Together they stand in a battle to find the truth, bring Caleb home, and secure Ava’s freedom—not to mention save her life.
Age: 14 years and up
This is the follow-up to:
Ava Michaels used to think she was special.
As a child, she fantasized about having
magical powers...making things happen. But Ava grew up and eventually
accepted the fact that her childish dreams were just that, and maybe a
normal life wasn't so bad, after all.
Now a young college student, Ava meets
Caleb Foster, a brilliant and mysterious man who’s supposed to help her
pass physics, but in reality has another mission in mind. What he shows
Ava challenges her view of the world, shaking it to its very core.
Because Caleb isn't quite what he seems. In fact, he's not entirely human, and he's not the only one.
Together, the duo faces a threat from an
ancient race bound to protect humans, but only secondary to protecting
their own secrets – secrets they fear Ava may expose. Fighting to
survive, Ava soon learns she's not actually normal... she's not even
just special.
She's a little bit more.
About the Author
T.M. Franklin started out her career writing non-fiction in
a television newsroom. Graduating with a B.A. in Communications specializing in
broadcast journalism and production, she worked for nine years as a major
market television news producer, and garnered two regional Emmy Awards, before
she resigned to be a full-time mom and part-time freelance writer. After
writing and unsuccessfully querying a novel that she now admits, “is not that
great,” she decided to follow the advice of one of the agents who turned her
down—write some more and get better at it. Her first published novel, MORE, was
born during National Novel Writing month, a challenge to write a novel in
thirty days.
She lives in the Pacific Northwest with her husband, Mike,
is mom to two boys, Justin and Ryan, and has an enormous black dog named Rocky
who’s always lying nearby while she’s writing. Whether he’s soothed by the
clicking of the computer keys or just waiting for someone to rub his belly is
up for debate.
