Seventeen-year-old Hope Fairmont longs for a normal teenage life, but with a gift like hers, normal equals healing illnesses and injuries instantly. A small town is the perfect place for her to heal those who can't heal themselves, and an even better place for her father, James Fairmont, to hide his daughter from the rest of the world. Life takes an unexpected turn when two handsome strangers show up at her high school armed with an alarming amount of knowledge concerning her future and her past. Victor and Tie may say they're high school students, but their claims become suspect as they use every method available to prove Hope isn't the most average of teenagers. Staying away from them would be the smart thing to do, but Victor's gentle, easy manner, and Tie's mixed signals and strange mood swings draw her hopelessly closer to revealing the secret she and her father have been so desperate to hide. Hope's life goes from less than normal to downright crazy when she learns her healing power is tied to an ancient prophecy. With the support of her father, the fiery loyalty of her best friend Angie, and the child-like love of Kirby, a ten-year-old patient, Hope must fight against the forces of a relentless demon god while unwinding the tangled pieces of her past, proving to herself and those she loves that destiny isn't determined by some cosmic reading of the stars, but by the individual choices one makes.… (plus d'informations)

Once you hit chapter 15 it became more and more cliche and started to lose my interest. The characters were more archetypes of people than actual people. I felt no investment in them or in any relationship, romantic or otherwise.
The story had a promising start, and was unique in the use of Japanese mythology, but the story felt one dimensional. ( )

I heard about this book from Lovely Books. This is a story about Hope, a healer who helps heal patients at a hospital. Her father is a doctor and her job there is a janitor, but she sneaks her healing powers in when no one is looking.

Her father is paranoid about 'someone' finding out about Hope, so she has to hide her powers. When two handsome new boys show up at school, she is drawn to them both. But who are they really?

This book was easy to read and very engaging. It is part 1 of a series, so keep that in mind. A good first book. I liked the Japanese mythology as well. ( )

Hope is not like other teenage girls. She has the power to heal and even her best friend Angie doesn't know this secret. Hope’s father is the chief surgeon at the local hospital and although he feels it’s imperative to Hope’s safety that her special talent is kept secret he lets her help him at the hospital. It fulfils her to save people’s lives and help ease their pain.
When new boys Tie and Victor join the school Hope is strangely attracted to them and she starts to have flashbacks of another life.

What a great YA Fantasy read. Suitable for the younger side of young adult from 13 on.
I liked that Hope was strong and resilient. She was very mature and thought of herself as being a little boring. And then we have Angie the crazy, outgoing best friend. They counter balance each other perfectly and their friendship was very natural.
I liked how Hope managed her attraction to both Tie and Victor, the new boys with looks that made every girl swoon. As the boy’s characters developed they had me jumping back and forward between team Tie and team Victor.
The small glimpses of Hope’s old world and the cliff-hanger ending made me very eager to read the next instalment in this series.
A perfect blend of Fantasy, Mythology and Teen Romance.
