Publishers Summary: Dancia Lewis is far from popular. And that’s not just because of her average grades or her less-than-glamorous wardrobe. In fact, Dancia’s mediocrity is a welcome cover for her secret: whenever she sees a person threatening someone she cares about, things just … happen. Cars skid. Structures collapse. Usually someone gets hurt. So Dancia does everything possible to avoid getting close to people, believing this way she can suppress her powers and keep them hidden.
When recruiters from the prestigious Delcroix Academy offer her a full scholarship, Dancia fears her days of living under the radar may be over. But Delcroix is a school for diplomats’ kids and child geniuses — why are they treating Dancia like she’s special? Even the hottest guy on campus seems to be going out of his way to make her feel welcome.
And then there’s her mysterious new friend Jack, who can’t stay out of trouble. He suspects something dangerous is going on at Delcroix, and he wants Dancia to help him figure out what…But neither Jack or Dancia could have imagined what’s really going on behind the gates of Delcroix Academy.
This is an amazing book and hopefully the first in a series!!!
None of the characters in this book are black and white. There are many very realistic gray areas and hard decisions that Dancia has to make, especially when she and Jack start to find things about the school that don't add up to face value. There is a great triangle between Dancia, Jack and Cam - the hot popular guy at school. Dancia becomes friends with two girls as well - Esther and Hennie. I don't want to give anything away, so I'll end here. But, I can't wait for more books by this new author!!!
