After Kate sees Jarrod for the first time she senses a connection to him, something supernatural about him, when Jarrod is bullied by his classmates, and he unknowingly conjures up a freak thunderstorm inside their classroom, Kate knows she is right. She tries to convince him that he has extraordinary powers that need to be harnessed, but Jarrod, who doesn't believe in the paranormal, is only interested in her "hocus pocus" notions because he finds her captivating. But his powers turns uncontrollable and dangerous and that's when it convinces Jarrod to believe that maybe Kate's theories are true. Together, they embark on a journey, that transcends time and place, and unravels the mystery that has haunted Jarrod's family for generations and pit the teens against immense forces in a battle to undo the past and reshape the future.… (plus d'informations)

Cuando Kate le dice a su compañero de instituto Jarrod Thornton que tiene poderes mágicos como ella, Jarrod piensa que está tan loca como su abuela, la «bruja» Jillian.
Sin embargo, muy pronto se descubre que Jarrod tiene mucho más que ver con la magia de lo que a él le gustaría. Su familia está marcada por un terrible hechizo y, para acabar con él, los dos amigos deben viajar al pasado e intentar contactar con los antepasados de Jarrod. Así que, con la ayuda de Jillian, se trasladan a la Edad Media en un viaje durante el cual, además de vivir grandes aventuras y enfrentarse a enormes peligros, nacerá algo más que una simple amistad.

I read this book after finishing Marianne Curley's trilogy, and it was impossible to put down. The characters have their flaws, minute as they may be. You want to punch them for making stupid decisions, but you understand why they do. For a first book, this was great. Fantastic for quick reading. ( )

DNF.

I hate spineless wimps like Jarrod. ( )

'I recall the look in Rhauk's eyes the moment he spotted Kate. It will stay with me forever, carved into my brain like an engraving on a headstone. It's as if he found something he treasured, something he's been looking for all his life.'

THE PLOT

Kate Warren lives with her Grandmother, after her Mother abandoned her as a baby. Kate has powers, and everybody at School knows that she's different. When Jarrod Thornton, the new kid at School, walks into the classroom, Kate is mesmerised by him, and has no idea why.

As Kate gets to know Jarrod, she senses that he's different too, and she must convince him that he has strong powers that need to be controlled. Jarrod goes along with her theory, thinking her mad, but he's mesmerised by her too.

Kate and Jarrod are about to embark on an incredible journey, one that will show them the truth behind Jarrod's cursed family. They will become involved in a battle of epic proportion, one that will determine both of their futures. As they face terrible dangers, they start to grow closer together, and achieve the impossible.


MY OPINION

I got this book as a Birthday present when I was a lot younger, and I've read it several times. The complex story, and the strength of the characters, keeps bringing me back to this book, and I always enjoy reading it. The plot moves fast enough for me, whilst still holding back enough to keep me interested until the very end. There's enough twists in the story to make it an incredibly enjoyable read. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a new Fantasy/Magic book, with a hint of Romance thrown in too.

THE AUTHOR

This book was written by Marianne Curley. I haven't actually read any of her other books, but I intend to in the near future. This book was incredibly well written, it had just the right amount of Romance, without making it into a full blown Romance Novel. ( )

I read this as a teen and still remember it today. It was my introduction to supernatural fiction with a strong female lead and many twists and turns; also with elements of the Twilight books in the romance area I would recommend this as a quick easy read. ( )
