Book Description:
Seventeen-year-old Elle Collins spent most her life waiting for someone else to die…
When a heart donor is found, Elle awakes from surgery gifted with more than just a new heart—clairaudient messages and spiritual apparitions haunt her until she is convinced that she must be insane. Either that, or her donor is sending a message.
Desperate for answers the medical community can’t provide, Elle’s divination leads her to the family of her donor—a young girl named, Cas. With the help of her best friend, Rob—the guy who’s a testament that her new heart is capable of love, Elle must make sense of the clues Cas is sending.
As pieces of Cas’s life and death emerge, Elle will discover that she and Cas share more than just a heart.
I slide the
glass shower doors open and turn on the water, adjusting until I find just the
right temperature.
As I step under
the spray, the water hits my face in hard pellets. It feels good. Begrudgingly,
I reach down to grab a bar of soap. A sharp pain shoots down the left side of
my arm. For a moment, I feel paralyzed. My immediate thought is to yell for
help, but I can’t find my voice. I try to take a deep breath, but can’t. I
crumple to the tub and feel a strange, tingling sensation zip through my
fingertips.
“Mom!” I let out
a bloodcurdling squeal in a voice I don’t even recognize.
My mother runs
into the bathroom and slams the shower door open.
“What is it?”
She is the color of her bleached white towels. “What’s wrong?”
“It’s my heart!
Something is wrong. Call the hospital.”
