Description
In the second book of this swoony, striking YA duology, a teen girl finds herself reluctantly stepping into the role of superhero.
It turns out that having superpowers doesn't make life any easier.
For starters, Jenna Ray learns that being an official superhero means she and Blaze can work together but not be together--no matter how much they are drawn to each other.
Jenna can make it work, though. She can be "just friends" with Blaze while balancing intensive hero training, a world-ending prophecy, and her own power-triggering panic attacks.
But as Jenna tries to be the perfect hero, she's forced to make a choice: save the world or follow her heart?
