Word Count: 48k
Synopsis:
During WW1,
a meteorite crashed, releasing a mist that changed the DNA of all who were
exposed. One hundred years has passed and society is divided between the Norms
and the Caelians, whose changed DNA awakened dormant gifts, called
Talents.
Sadie is
over it!
She’s an
orphan, her boyfriend was murdered, and she’s the only Caelian at St. Vincent’s
without a Talent. Once she turns 18, there will be no place for her in the
world. That is, until a chance encounter with Kian, a Caelian boy who makes her
feel uncomfortable and alive at the same time.
Secrets of
her past are uncovered and Sadie’s latent, rare Talent is exposed. With great
power comes the hunters, hired by an egomaniac who wants to use Sadie’s power
to establish Caelian dominance. On the run with Kian and her friends, Sadie
will have to decide: hide or fight.
Will Sadie
accept her new reality or will she stay lost?

AUTHOR
INFORMATION:
Hello!
Donnielle here. I’m a new indie young adult author. When I’m not writing, I
spend my time reading, binge watching Netflix, homeschooling my two children,
and hanging out with my husband.
A few fun
facts about me:
1. I began
writing when I was in junior high. A teacher approached me with a poetry book
and I fell in love. Writing poetry has helped me express myself through some of
the darkest times in my life.
2. I am
always reading something and own hundreds of eBooks. I thank the technology
gods for the invention of e-readers. Series are my favorite. I love it when I
feel like I cannot stop reading a book. My favorite genre is sci-fi and
paranormal.
3. I am a
HUGE nerd and enjoy every medium of nerdom from comic books to Magic! The
Gathering.
4. I am a
serious introvert and need plenty of alone time so I don’t go insane.
Seriously! I will cut someone if they cut in to my “me” time.
5. I have a
passion for holistic medicine and create many of my own household products. My
kids and husband will ask for some “oils” when they aren’t feeling well. I love
growing herbs to make my own blends of herbal tea.
6. I read
YA almost exclusively. There is just something about it that calls to my heart
above other genres.
7. When I
read paranormal it’s either about shifters or faeries.
8. Writing
has always been a passion and a dream. I had many jobs and they never fulfilled
me the way writing has.

Review:
I
love books about magic. In this story a
fallen star gave certain people magic.
However not everyone was happy about it.
In fact, even the magical people weren’t sure how they felt about
it. Many of the magical people thought
it meant that they were the next step in evolution and all non-magics (norms) should
be enslaved or dead.
The
star of the book was born into the magical world, but didn’t have any magic…maybe. Find out what happens when she discovers her
hidden talent.
I
give this book 4 out of 5 clouds and eagerly await book 2.
