When Clara Gardner discovers she’s part angel, her entire life changes. Being part angel, she’s not only faster and smarter than other humans, she also has dreams that seem to show part of the future. When her dreams draw her and her family from California to Wyoming to save the boy she believes she’s destined to save from a forest fire. Finding the boy in her vision, Christian, is easy, but getting to him is not. Trying to negotiate high school cliques, homework, getting close to Christian, and learning to use her powers are almost to much too handle. Will Clara be able to get close enough to Christian in time to save him from the forest fire?

A great adventure for paranormal fans. The characters are well-developed. The plot is unique and
well-done. Readers who like fantasy, paranormal, romance, and adventure will probably enjoy reading this book. MS. HS. ESSENTIAL. Reviewer: Jessica M, Library Media Specialist, Olympus Jr. High.
