Blue Moon by Alyson Noel (The Immortals 2)

Eager to learn everything she can about her new abilities as an Immortal, Ever turns to her beloved Damen to show her the way. But just as her powers are increasing, Damen’s are waning.

In an attempt to save him, Ever travels to the magical dimension of Summerland, where she learns the secrets of Damen’s tortured past; a past which he has always kept hidden from her. But in her quest to cure Damen, Ever discovers an ancient text that details the workings of time. Now Ever must choose between turning back the past and saving her family from the accident that claimed their lives—or staying in the present and saving Damen, who grows sicker every day...






_________________________

As Damen is trying to teach Ever everything he knows, Damen's past comes to hunt him. Ever doesn't trust the new the new student named Roman. Soon after he arrives in school Damen becomes sick, the students become one group and turn on Ever, including Damen. He accuses her of being obssesed and a stalker. Through out the book Ever travels to Summerland trying to find a way to help Damen and save his life. During her trips to Summerland she finds out she can go back in time and maybe save their lives, but she chose Damen. I have enjoyed this series so far and I cant wait till the 3rd book that will be released later this year.

Evermore by Alyson Noel (The Immortals 1)

Since a horrible accident claimed the lives of her family, Ever can see auras, hear people's thoughts, and know a person's entire life story by touch. Going out of her way to avoid human contact and suppress her abilities has branded her as a freak at her new high school—but everything changes when she meets Damen.

Damen Auguste is gorgeous, exotic and wealthy. He's the only one who can silence the noise and random energy in her head—wielding a magic so intense, it's as though he can see straight into her soul. As Ever is drawn deeper into his enticing world of secrets and mystery, she's left with more questions than answers. She has no idea just who he really is—or what he is. The only thing she knows to be true is she's falling deeply and helplessly in love with him.







________________________

After loosing her parents ever moves half way accross the country to live with her wealthy Lawyer aunt. She is considered a freak in her new school, she is constantly wearing hoodies, and using her IPod to hide and to avoid hearing others thoughts. When she meets Damen, the new guy in school, everything changes for her. When he is around she feels at peace. The only thing that gets tiring about this book is the back and forth between Damen and Ever. They want each other, then they don't, she hates him, then she doesn't. Other than that I think the book was worth reading.

The Silver Kiss



Zoe is 16 and facing bereavement: her mother is dying of cancer, and her father seems to be excluding her from her mother's hospital bedside. No one dares speak to Zoe about the family tragedy, and she is isolated by grief, anger and fear. Then she meets the alluring, enigmatic Simon ("His eyes were dark, full of wilderness and stars"), who has an uncanny ability to recognize her feelings. After a series of nocturnal meetings, Zoe learns that Simon is a vampire kept alive by his thirst to avenge the death of his own mother three centuries ago. Drawn to him by an empathy charged with both longing and fear, Zoe agrees to participate in a dangerous scheme to trap Simon's mother's supernatural killer. The two emerge from their encounter able to mourn and acknowledge their losses. First-novelist Klause is excessively ambitious in her juggling of genres and themes; as a result, her suspense is uneven, her love story inadequately rooted and her resolution just a bit pat. Nevertheless, the use of the vampire figure to exorcise Zoe's complex feelings and often striking prose attest to an intelligent and original eye.
______________________________________________________

Zoe is a 16 year old going through one of the toughest time in her life. Her mother is dying of cancer, her father is never there because he is always either at work or at the hospital and to add to it her best friend is moving away and to top it all off she can't sleep. Late one night Zoe goes on a walk at the park and meets a boy named Simon. Throughout the book Zoe and Simon help each other, yes there is love, but... I'll leave it as that, because it is a book worth reading.
