Goodreads Summary:
Since a horrible accident claimed the lives of her family, sixteen-year-old Ever can see auras, hear people’s thoughts, and know a person’s life story by touch. Going out of her way to shield herself from human contact to suppress her abilities has branded her as a freak at her new high school—but everything changes when she meets Damen Auguste…
Ever sees Damen and feels an instant recognition. He is gorgeous, exotic and wealthy, and he holds many secrets. Damen is able to make things appear and disappear, he always seems to know what she’s thinking—and he’s the only one who can silence the noise and the random energy in her head. She doesn’t know who he really is—or what he is. Damen equal parts light and darkness, and he belongs to an enchanted new world where no one ever dies.
My Review:
I read this book in one day! I actually only stopped once to eat dinner and then kept on truckin'! I enjoyed this book so much. The "love story" kind of reminded me of twilight... well actually, no I take that back.... Damen, the mysterious new hottie at school, reminds me alot of Edward Cullen. Ever is this beautiful girl who's scarred from her past... and haunted by her hilarious dead little sister.
Damen's so wishy washy it's hard to tell if he's the good guy or bad guy. It's hard to tell who's the bad or good guys with a few of the characters which makes it that more interesting for me.
I would totally recommend this book. But honestly I haven't decided if I'll continue with the series. This book ended so well that I don't feel like anything was left unsaid or left out. There wasn't a cliff hanger or anything like that. I might put the sequel on my "reminder" list to check it out later and see how I feel about it then.

I totally love Damen too and I very much agree with what you saida about the ending. It doesn't seem as though any books will follow after this one. Great review :)
