From the Author:
This book is suitable for anyone, because it's a story about a girl that has been stigmatized in a society just because she was different. To make it more absurd, the first reason was the color of her eyes. Her immortality just added to the fire!
Be it the color of the skin or worshiping a different God;I see hatred in our present society as equally absurd. I wanted to show how different people are treated, how our noble deeds can be overpowered by hate, and I spiced it up with a bit of romance.
Hopefully, readers will enjoy reading as much as I did writing it.

I am hooked!
What can I say, I'm hooked to Rayne's books. Although I expected another one like 21 Erased, I was pleasantly surprised to find out how different it was. I read it in a day and liked it very much.
Nette is very likable, strong and good-hearted. At first I thought she was abducted by aliens, but as the story evolved, I started to connect the dots and loved her by the minute. When you think of it, she had such a hard life, so much heartache, and she managed to stay above it all. I rooted for her every step of the way, and couldn't wait to see if that poor girl is going to have some peace.
Raul, he is a sweetheart, masculine, but tender, responsible, but not a fool. I couldn't imagine a better person for Nette than him. Their conversations were so witty at times, that I laughed out loud. I'm sure people at the park thought I must be crazy.
I'm not a teen, but I would recommend this book to all teens out there, because it's empowering. It can help put things into perspective. No matter how big the problems seem at the time, being different is beautiful, even though people may put you through hell because of it.
