My Review

Shadow of the Mark

Their love could destroy them all.

Through the ages, Marked Ones have harnessed the powers of the four elements: Water, Fire, Earth, and Air. Much about the elements is shrouded in mystery, but one thing is certain: A relationship between two Marked Ones has the potential to cause widespread devastation.

Megan and Adam—Air and Water—are determined to defy the risks.

But the power that swirls inside Megan is growing in twisted ways. And the closer she is to Adam, the closer Megan comes to unleashing a dark force that could spell destruction for the entire Marked line.

My Review: Megan is a new student in a new place. Current location is Ireland. Megan has been moving around alot with her dad since the death of her mother. Megan's journey has taken her to Ireland where she starts a new school. Megan is used to starting over and this time things feel unusually strange. Megan finds herself staring after Adam. A kid who's family has some strange rumors behind them. Megan however ignore that fact and continues on. Her friend Caitlin convinces her to join them for lessons on boats in exchange for a few weeks off gym. Megan agrees, and runs into some trouble. Megan is accidently hit on the head and falls backward into the water. Even with a life jacket she ends up under the water, or should I say more like in the water surrounded by a soft glow. After experiencing this and remembering about Adam's family, Megan begins to believe there is something hiding within his family. More into the book the, there is a party going on and Megan is going. On the way to that party she runs into some trouble with two boys. Megan began to feel scared, but before anything happens this gust a wind, nearly tornado like comes out of no where and sweeps the boys away. In seconds Adam appears and so Megan assumes Adam had something to do with it, when secretly it was all Megan. As the the story goes on, we come to learn that Megan has the element of "Air".  What she has to do with it will remain a secret until you read the book.
