More responsible, slightly less beautiful, and nearly unable to let loose and have fun, Harper worries almost constantly about Gemma and her reckless decisions (like swimming alone at night). ~ Gemma has fallen for Alex, the literal boy-next-door and her sister’s best friend.
Gemma becomes increasingly annoyed when a trio of ridiculously beautiful girls show up in her area of the water and start partying nightly while she’s swimming. Gemma loves swimming and has a tendency to go down to the ocean and swim late at night alone – she feels most at ease there when there are no crowds and she can be under the stars. Just as I suspected, I’m already pining away for the next book to be released. I was thrilled to pieces to read Wake and I have no doubt that this is going to be another series that I’ll fall for. My Thoughts: I feel like I can call myself a pretty solid fan of Amanda Hocking after reading The Trylle Trilogy and loving each of those books to pieces. And as she uncovers the truth, she’s is forced to choose between staying with those she loves-or entering a new world brimming with dark hungers and unimaginable secrets. But her new powers come with a terrifying price. Suddenly Gemma is stronger, faster, and more beautiful than ever. They invite her to join them, and the next morning she wakes up on the beach feeling groggy and sick, knowing something is different. She’s taking a late night swim under the stars when she finds Penn, Lexi and Thea partying on the cove. Then one night, Gemma’s ordinary life changes forever. He’s always been just a friend, but this summer they’ve taken their relationship to the next level, and now there’s no going back. Gemma seems to have it all-she’s carefree, pretty, and falling in love with Alex, the boy next door. She’s the one they’ve chosen to be part of their group. Strangers in town for the summer, Penn, Lexi and Thea have caught everyone’s attention-but it’s Gemma who’s attracted theirs. They’re the kind of girls you envy the kind of girls you want to hate.
