Sixteen-year-old Evie Greene thought her horrific apocalyptic hallucinations were a sign that she was slowly losing her mind. But when her visions come true, decimating the world around her and killing everyone she loves, Evie is forced to accept that she was seeing the future.

As Jackson and Evie race to find the source of her visions, they meet others who have got the same call and discover that Evie is not the only one with special powers. An ancient prophesy is being played out, and as the battle between good and evil intensifies, it is not always clear who is on which side… (Goodreads)

  7. LOVED THIS BOOK!!! And I want to read it again! Kresley Cole writes great adult and she brings that talent to YA dystopian. You're going to love it!

  8. Poison Princess is pretty good. The love interest is dreamy, and he's got a Cajun accent. Plus, it's more Post-Apocalyptic than Dystopian--which I like. KC's a great author, but you never know how great authors will make the transition to YA. I'd say she did a great job.
