Back Cover: 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 anyone, belieiving this way she can supress her
powers and keep them hidden. But when recruiters from the prestigious Delcroix
Academy show up in her living room to offer her a full scholarship, Dancia's
days of living under the radar may be over. Only, Delcroix is a school for
diplomats' kids and child geniuses--not B students with uncontrollable
telekinetic tendencies. So 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 Dancia 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 the Academy and wants Dancia to help him
figure out what. But Dancia isn't
convinced. She hopes that maybe the recruiters know more about her
"gift" than they're letting on. Maybe they can help her understand
how to use it...But not even Dancia could have imagined what awaits her behind
the gates of Delcroix Academy.
This is the first book in the Delcroix Academy series.
Dancia has been trying to just get by and not be noticed. She knows that there
is something very different about her and she doesn’t want others to know about
it at all. But after something that happened at the hospital she has gotten the
attention of the Delcroix Academy. Now things are changing and fast. Dancia
isn’t quite sure what to make of everything that is going on. But she has
friends and she isn’t sure what to make of that. Dancia is a great character
who you can’t help but feel for. And the supporting characters are brilliant.
Jake is your bad boy that you can’t help but love. There is so much going on
that you won’t want to put this book down once you start reading it. I truly
love this book and can’t wait to read the next one in the series, The Marked.
