Invisible Touch by Kelly Parra
Summary:
Kara Martinez has been trying to be "normal" ever since the accident that took her father's life when she was eleven years old. She's buried the caliente side of her Mexican heritage with her father and tried to be the girl her rigid mother wants her to be -- compliant and dressed in pink, and certainly not acting out like her older brother Jason. Not even Danielle, her best friend at Valdez High, has seen the real Kara; only those who read her anonymous blog know the deepest secrets of the Sign Seer.
Because Kara has a gift -- one that often feels like a curse. She sees signs, visions that are clues to a person's fate, if she can put together the pieces of the puzzle in time. So far, she's been able to solve the clues and avert disaster for those she's been warned about -- until she sees the flash of a gun on a fellow classmate, and the stakes are raised higher than ever before. Kara does her best to follow the signs, but it's her heart that wanders into new territory when she falls for a mysterious guy from the wrong side of town, taking her closer to answers she may not be able to handle. Will her forbidden romance help her solve the deadly puzzle before it's too late...or lead her even further into danger?
Review:
When my mom and I first read the description of this book we both thought it sounded a lot like that show 'Tru Calling' which we both love watching, but after reading it I think that it's only fairly similar to the show; though, it is still very good, but in it's own way. I could not put this book down, I carried it with me everywhere hoping to get a spare second so I could open it up and continue reading it. You know when you've just read good book because the author has this way of making you feel every emotion that the character in the felt-frustration, love, anger, confusion-and this was one of those books. With twists and turns at every corner the ending of this book will leave you stunned.
Does anyone know if this book is a stand-alone or part of a series?
