When she overhears supernatural voices celebrating the impending death of the school quarterback, Levi Anderson, she knows she has to do something to prevent it.

My Review: 5 Stars
I'm not a huge fan of paranormal, but Janette Rallison has a way of writing that makes anything entertaining, interesting, and adorable! As with her usual style, the story line flows well, the characters are well developed, and the dialog is witty and engaging. I honestly look forward to everything she writes.
Adelle had an incident when she was younger that left her with the ability to see and hear demons, which is, in a way, both a blessing and a curse. I feel sorry for Adelle, since she has such a burden, but she is a likable girl, although shy. I liked watching her grow and to see her take the advice from others, learning more about herself and the world around her in the process.
Levi is a self-proclaimed atheist. Adelle wants someone to believe her more than anything and he just can't quite do that, but he is amazing at keeping secrets and sticking up for her, even going as far as helping her cover for quite a few things. I adored him!
I loved the ebb and flow of this story. There were times when things were really intense and suspenseful, and other moments when it is calm and fun. The mystery element is a good touch. I enjoy a good, clean, swoony romance and this one had a good amount. The emotions rise and fall, as well, and it's just an all-around, great book. This is a great high school, young adult book, but even "older" readers (like me) will enjoy it!
Content: mild violence (attempted attacks, mention of drugs, deaths, etc); mild romance (kissing). Clean!

She lives in Arizona with her husband, kids, and enough cats to classify her as eccentric.

About the Author:
Janette Rallison/CJ Hill writes books because writing is much more fun than cleaning bathrooms.
Her
avoidance of housework has led her to writing 24 novels that have sold
over 1,000,000 print copies and have been on many reading and state
lists.
Her
books are fantasy, sci-fi, and romantic comedy because hey, there is
enough angst in real life, but there’s a drastic shortage of humor,
romance and hot guys who fight dragons.
