Short Synopsis: Clare is back. After the horrible incident, Clare has become the school celebrity, and has gained some popularity. But with this unwanted publicity, comes a stalker. 

My Thoughts: Another awesome read by Kim Harrington. I couldn't put it down. If you've read Clarity, this is one to definitely not miss.

Ever since Clare's unfortunate mishap, she has become the local celebrity at school. But she hates being the center of attention. And things get worse when Clare starts receiving notes from a secret admirer. And if things couldn't get worse, another girl goes missing.
Clare feels that with the powers that she has, she has an obligation to find the missing girl. But there's a catch. The missing girl wrote her mother a note, and most of her personal belongings are gone. There's only so much that Clare can do.
And through all the drama going on in Clare's life, she still has feelings for both Gabriel and Justin, and doesn't know who she should choose. Though she'll always have feelings for Justin, she's not sure if he gets her at all. And if things couldn't get even more complicated, her brother Perry is experiencing personal, health related issues. Can Clare find out who her stalker is before things get too rough, and find out what happened to the missing girl? 

If you love the paranormal world, this is one series that is a definite must read. Clare and her family have a unique psychic connection to help save innocents. Clare is strong, independent, with a mind of her own, and is always willing to take actions into her own hands. 

I loved reading about the love triangle between Clare, Gabriel and Justin. And though both Gabriel and Justin and have strong feelings for Clare, it felt pretty obvious that Justin didn't seem genuinely concerned for Clare's feelings. I hate how Justin treated Clare, and still expected her to pick him.

And I loved trying to find out who Clare's secret admirer really was, and how he was connected. I really had no idea who the culprit was until the end of the novel.

Harrington writes with such fierce suspense and mystery, that I couldn't put down the novel. I wasn't too thrilled with how it ended. We find out about a lot of shocking facts. We find out what really happened with Justin, and we also find out that Gabriel "needed" an excuse to stay, but in my opinion, it made him feel a bit needy, and should have expressed his intentions towards Clare more clear. Overall, I loved this series, and look forward to reading more of Harrington's novels. 

Would I recommend this book: Yes!

Rating: I give this book a 4.5/5.
