    Dark Visions

    GIFTED AND CURSED

    Kaitlyn Fairchild has always felt like an outsider in her small hometown. Her haunting eyes and prophetic drawings have earned her a reputation as a witch. But Kait's not a witch: She's a psychic. Tired of being shunned, Kait accepts an invitation to attend the Zetes Institute, where she can have a fresh start and study with other psychic teens.

    Learning to hone her abilities with four other gifted students, Kait discovers the intensity of her power -- and the joy of having true friends. But those friendships quickly become complicated when Kait finds herself torn between two irresistible guys. Rob is kind and athletic, and heals people with his good energy. Gabriel is aggressive and mysterious, a telepath concealing his true nature as a psychic vampire, feeding off of others' life energy. Together, Rob and Gabriel's opposing forces threaten the group's stability.

    Then one of the experiments traps the five teens in a psychic link. A link that threatens their sanity and their lives. And Kaitlyn must decide whom to trust...and whom to love.

I am a super great fan of yours. I really liked your The Secret Circle book. I was actually inspired to watch the Tv Series because the book was really awesome. Well, I wasn't disappointed because not much like the book, but sometimes it's really good too.

The Vampire Diaries books, I read them because of the TV Series. It was really awesome, I mean the Tv Series that's why when I heard it was a book, I bought the whole set really and it's right now stocked in my book shelf and what an awesome collection. I hope to get to you one day and have your autograph. Is that even possible?
