Jeanne's Review:
Izzy Boone has a normal life for the most part.  She spends her days working a bicycle messenger and her nights hanging at a bar with her roommate, Keenan O'Malley.  Her past is full of loss - her parents and her Grams, but Izzy maintains an optimism that is unscathed.  On the eve of her 25th birthday, Izzy's world is turned upside down.  She discovers she is a member of a rare race of Seers, who have unique abilities, and Keenan is her Guardian, deemed to protect her at all cost.  An intricate world evolves around Izzy and Keenan, as they train Izzy in her abilities, and hide her from the evil Corporation who wishes to use her power for greed.

This story is gripping.  Izzy's snarky personality is delightful, and loyal, devoted Keenan, hubba bubba! We learn so much through Izzy's dreams and nightmares, and I was really intrigued by Ms. Graves use of Druid/Celtic history.  There are so many twist an turns, that it's almost impossible to put this book down.  Secret worlds, family members warring against one another, interesting characters and a deep connection between the hero/heroine are a few things you will discover in this story.  If you're a fan of Twilight and The Mortal Instruments, you will love this book.

I rate this book at: 4 honey pots
