Product description
Bestselling author Aprilynne Pike spins a tale of conspiracy, conflict and heart-stopping romance to captivate fans of Nightshade and Fallen.
If love can survive death, are soulmates eternal? Eighteen-year-old Tavia is the sole survivor of a plane crash that killed her parents. Grieving and lonely, she starts having strange visions of a boy she’s never met but feels compulsively drawn to. A boy who tells her to do things she never dreamed of. At the same time, Tavia begins to suspect that secrets are being kept from her. Surely her kindly aunt and uncle know more than they’ve let on. Was the plane crash really an accident? Or is Tavia part of a terrifying plot? With only her instincts and long-time crush, Benson, to guide her, Tavia must decide where her destiny lies… and with whom.

Unlike any other...
It’s a story about a girl named Tavia who was in a horrendous plane crash which left her the sole survivor. Now parentless she goes to live with her step-aunt and uncle (Reese and Jay). She finds herself spilling all her secrets to a boy called Benson who works in the local library, despite the fact her therapist (Elizabeth) told her not to tell anyone about the plane crash.
After a while she starts to see glowing triangles, and an old-fashioned boy named Quinn, whose blonde hair and green eyes captivate her, making her fell like she’s known him before. As she falls in love with Benson, a mystery unfolds involving the Curatoria and Reduciata, which are both are brotherhoods searching for her, and neither are to be trusted.
Tavia finds out that she’s an Earthbound, a type of God, and that she’s been in love with Quinn for hundreds of lifetimes being reborn again and again. However with the Curatoria and the Reduciata on their tails can Benson and Tavia find a way to be together?
I thought that this was a really good book, a plot unlike any other book I’ve read. Definitely a good read!
