Samantha’s highest aspiration is to survive her family until she reaches the age of freedom, eighteen. Destiny? Love? Concepts that are as foreign to her as a sound night’s sleep. With a younger sister who believes she has the power to make things happen by “praying” for them, a mother who goes from fine to monster without warning, a father that ignores it all, and another new school to adjust to, Sam doesn’t have time to consider what she wants from her life. But if she thought she had problems before, she’s definitely not ready for Nick, or all the questions he raises about her life.
Are her dreams really predicting the future? Are her sister’s powers real? What’s her mother up to? She can’t really have a destiny, can she? Can love be real, if some prophecy tells you it is? What’s a seasonal? How many questions can you ask a werewolf before it bites you?
Sam has survived this long by never standing up for herself, but when eyes turn toward her little sister, it’s time to put up or shut up.
