Back Cover: Zara collects phobias the way other high school girls collect lipsticks. Little wonder, since life’s been pretty rough so far. Her father left, her stepfather just died, and her mother’s pretty much checked out. Now Zara’s living with her grandmother in sleepy, cold Maine so that she stays “safe.” Zara doesn’t think she’s in danger; she thinks her mother can’t deal. Wrong. Turns out that guy she sees everywhere, the one leaving trails of gold glitter, isn’t a figment of her imagination. He’s a pixie—and not the cute, lovable kind with wings. He’s the kind who has dreadful, uncontrollable needs. And he’s trailing Zara. With suspense, romance, and paranormal themes, this exciting breakout novel has all the elements to keep teens rapidly turning the pages.

Now I picked this up not so sure what to expect. The back cover really didn’t tell you much about what this story was going to be about. I was just too intrigued about what it was going to be about. What I found was an amazing story that drew me in. I think that the friendship and then romance between Zara and Nick was so sweet. While you have Ian which you couldn’t make heads or tails of. This is a great story with visual scenes to draw you deeper into the story. One of those must haves for your book shelf. I can't wait to read the next book in this series, Captivate.
