by Caroline B. Cooney (Author)
From the bestselling author of The Face on the Milk Carton: A thrilling novel about a girl whose obsession with a mysterious boy could destroy them both.
When she's callously kicked out of choir class, Nicoletta dreads having to take art appreciation instead. Then she sets eyes on Jethro, a new kid whose dark beauty makes her wish she actually knew how to paint. Nicoletta is so mesmerized she finds herself following the brooding, mysterious stranger home. At least, that's where she thinks he's going . . . In the safety of the woods, Jethro's power seems to surge, almost as if the trees and boulders of the forest rise up to greet him. He's so different, so beautiful, so . . . inhuman. Before long, Jethro becomes Nicoletta's obsession. And while the truth about his nature is terrifying, Nicoletta may already be in too deep. By turns alluring and unsettling, this novel from the author of the Janie Johnson series is unafraid to explore the stranger things in life.Author Biography
