It was time to pull myself together and slink out of this bathroom to face Jack; if he was even waiting for me. He most likely lost interest and retreated back to class. I splashed water on my face and tried vainly to tame my obnoxious, curly red hair and exited the bathroom. To my surprise, Jack was leaning against the wall with his hands in his pockets, staring at the ground. He looked up and smiled slightly at me, one corner of his attractive mouth inching higher than the other. His big, nearly black eyes were full of concern as he asked, “You feeling better? I thought maybe you were gonna puke all over the place back there.”

Perfect. Exactly what I wanted him to think of in connection with me: the girl who looked like she was going to puke. “No, I’m fine. I needed to get away from the Wikipedia re-hash, that’s all. Thanks for the escape.” I tried to scoot by him.

He laughed a bit under his breath and reached out, gently grabbing my arm as I passed. “Hey, don’t run off. You looked really upset. I want to make sure you’re all right. Besides, Ms. Gonzalez thinks we’re at the nurse. No need to rush back for more coma-inducing book reports. I’m Jack, by the way. Jack Ruiz.” He pulled me directly in front of him and again examined my face. An intoxicating aroma wafted to me from his warm skin; a sort of warm, spicy scent that instantly became my new favorite. I might have swayed toward him a bit.

“Yeah, I know, Jack. I’ve been handing your papers back all semester.” I struggled to sound unaffected.

He nodded. “You still look really pale, Ally. And you seem a bit unsteady. Sure you’re not gonna puke?”

Really? Why me, God? I stood up straight and gently shrugged off his hand. “Yes. I had a, uh…a moment. I’m okay. Thanks for getting me out of there.” His dark eyes looked like melted dark chocolate. Life is so not fair. On the bright side, he actually knows my name. I wouldn’t have bet on that. I’m not the kind of girl who stands out—well, except for the crazy red hair—or attracts much attention. I’m short and small, wear really plain clothes, and I don’t say very much at school. I have a few good friends and we pretty much fly below the radar and try to stay out of the limelight. I like it that way. High school seriously sucks and I just want to get through it quietly and without a lot of drama. Please, God, life will be better in college.

“So, this is gonna sound pretty weird,” Jack started hesitantly, “but, uh, when it got really hot in the classroom, it, well it kinda felt like it was, uh, emanating from you.” He laughed once, quietly. “That’s crazy, huh?”

Wow. Did he just use the word “emanating” in a sentence? Who does that? I mean, in high school? I wonder what he got on his ACT? I had always had the sense there was more to him than meets the eye, and this cemented that feeling.

~ SYNOPSIS ~

Meet Ally, a 17 year-old who also happens to be psychic. Oh, and she’s getting more psychic with every passing day, so much so that she’s been sent to Ireland to check in with the Seer Council to see what’s up with her freaky new powers.

Jack is her 19 year-old boyfriend, a former trouble-maker who is back on track and trying desperately to graduate. His plans did not include falling in love with psychic trouble-magnet.

Just last month they worked together to save a friend in deep trouble and ended up exposing a steroid ring at their school. Now there’s a new guy at school who seems just a little bit too interested in Ally for Jack’s liking. And why does Ally keep dreaming about a kidnapping? Last month seems like a cakewalk compared to this semester. Ally's trying to solve a mystery, but Jack is just trying to keep her alive.

“Ally? Hey, what’s up? You got real quiet all of a sudden. Not a good quiet, either. What are you thinking?”

I shook my head. “No, it’s nothing. I get it. I understand.”

He looked at me for minute and then sighed. He got up and came around to my side of the booth and took me in his arms and kissed the top of my head. “You’ve got that look on your face. You know, the one that says you think I’m not going to be able to handle any more weird stuff and this is it for us. Huh? Admit it—it’s what you were thinking, isn’t it?” I nodded, trying to keep the tears in. “Okay, look at me.” He pulled my face up to look directly in my eyes. I could stare into his beautiful, deep brown eyes all day. “First, and most importantly, I love you, Ally. I’m in this for the long haul, no matter how freaky things get. If it means I get you, then count me in. You gotta start believing in us, babe.” He stopped to kiss me briefly and thank the waitress for refilling our coffee cups. “Secondly, you’re giving me, and all guys in general actually, way too much credit for deep thinking. When I say ‘what the hell is an oracle?’ that’s all I mean. No hidden meaning. I just want to know what it is. Guys are actually pretty simple and we tend to say exactly what we mean.” He kissed me again and then returned to his side of the table, placing a napkin in my hand so I could mop my face. Poor guy: it seems like all he ever did was watch me cry. I was such a girl. “Now let’s finish eating while you tell me all about this oracle stuff, okay?”

So I wiped my eyes and told him about how the Seer Council had tricked me into believing they were simply a group of innocent little old lady gardeners, but they actually held my fate in their hands. I told him about the last Oracle being stolen away from her people by the Gaulish clan, never to be heard from again. And I told him how the council was very interested in my abilities to see the future and seemed to think it was possible evidence of my oracle-ness or whatever. I finished with, “And they didn’t want to even let me go. They made me promise to come back over spring break and in the summer.”

“Spring break? Ah, Ally, no. I can’t stand not having our last school vacation together. You gotta tell them no, querida. I’ll probably go nuts if you’re gone.”

“Don’t worry. There is no way I’m going back over spring break. I’ll go in the summer as long as it’s while you’re gone to basic training.” I grabbed his hand across the table and rubbed my thumb over his knuckles. I told him what the council had told me about oracles, how they were messengers between worlds or something.

“Ally, what do you think? Do you think you could be this oracle?” He looked at me with concern.

“I don’t know, Jack. I think there’s a lot more to the story than what they’re telling me. I don’t trust those little old garden-seer ladies. I can’t even think about being an Oracle before I know what’s really going on.”

“That was a very Oracle-like thing to say,” he said with a laugh.

“Shut up.” I smiled. “Does this lunch include pie?”

4.5 Stars

So first thing I wanna say is that while this is a YA book there were a few intense themes mentioned throughout the book.

Ally is different she know it and accepts it and has always tried to stay under the radar at school and not get noticed, until her gifts magnify and she starts having visions, right in the middle of class. The plus side is almost no one noticed and the only person that did is the swoon worthy new guy who sits right behind her.

Jack hadn't said much of anything to her until then, but once he comes to her rescue the two can't seem to stay away from each other. As they become friends they work to understand her visions and how she can help the person in them all while trying not to drool while thinking about kissing Jack.

Ally is a high school girl with normal boy problems, but is also trying to understand her new found gifts and it's made her quite mature in some ways while you can still see her a a kid learning about growing up.

Jack is a total sweetie who is easy to fall in love with.

The two have both normal and not so normal problems and I loved seeing the balance between them. I also enjoyed all the supporting characters and how there was great depth to them as well so you really feel like you're right there in the story being a part of it.

The paranormal aspect is interesting and was explained perfectly so you never had any moments where you were scratching your head wondering what the heck was going on. Everything was well rounded and this was one I thoroughly enjoyed and am excited to continue reading more of.

Review contains spoilers if you haven't read book 1

Ally has only just scratched the surface of her gifts and is now on her way to learning even more. She managed to deal with the craziness of her visions of Veronica, but is still recuperating from the after affects of everything that happened. And now more gets thrown at her in Ireland, while she is also sucked into another mystery.

The good thing is her relationship with Jack has been figured out, and he's right there to help her as things in her life get ramped up even more.

More mystery and more powers this poor girl has allot to deal with, but she handles it so well and I admire her for it even though she is young. She does still have her teenager moments which make her seem more real, but overall is more mature than ever. Don't worry though she still manages a fair amount of trouble.

 Great addition to the series growing from book 1 to show even more of the paranormal aspect and the characters making you fall in love with them even more and making me more excited than ever to read more!
