GOODREADS SUMMARY
Teenager Whitney Forbes thought her biggest problem was surviving high school and determining if there was more to handsome Reid Wallace than just his looks and popularity. She was wrong; her problems were about to get a lot more complicated.
Whitney always knew she was special. But when she discovers she is more special than she ever imagined, surviving another school day takes on a whole new meaning. Caught in the middle of a CIA plot and her undeniable magnetic attraction to Reid, she will need to decide who she can trust and what it means to become the Sundial...before she risks her heart and an alarming plan goes into motion.
Will she have what it takes to not only survive but also prevail? Time brings the truth to light in this epic adventure about love, trust and the process of turning adversity into advantage.
REVIEW
Whitney is facing many obstacles. There are evil people trying to take over the world, a CIA plot, pure energy, and a cute boy named Reid who Whitney cannot get out of her mind. Oh, and then there are the superpowers that both help and hinder the whole situation.
Let me tell you about these superpowers. My personal favorite is Reid’s power. He can tell the history of an object just by touching it. Other powers include enhanced eyesight and incredible physical strength to name a few. Whitney has the ability to learn any power at all with a little practice. Others only have one power and they must spend years perfecting it.
There is a growing relationship between Whitney and Reid. I liked their relationship and the way Whitney learned more and more about Reid throughout the story. At times their relationship was slow, but I felt drawn into the story again once things heated back up.
The plot is complex and Whitney learns that things may not be what they first appear to be. I liked the surprises and twists that the authors worked into the plot. Expect the unexpected with this one. On a personal note, my brother has a food allergy and I really appreciated that the authors worked food allergies into their story. I told you to expect the unexpected!

COVER COMMENTS
The blazing hot sun is fitting to a book entitled Sundial. Whitney’s dark silhouette adds some mystery to her appearance. Yeah, I like it.
