    About this ebook

    In a city where teenagers are born with the gifts of magic or superpowers (or both) comes a story about fourteen-year-old Emma who is on the edge of entering high school and trying desperately to figure out the gifts she was born with. High school and life are hard enough for teenagers who are born double gifted; but on Emma's first day of school, she is lucky enough to meet Jack, a fellow freshman who can help her navigate through it all. But both Emma and Jack need to be careful. There is a secret organization that is out to separate the double-gifted citizens from the rest of the city that both Emma's and Jack's families call home.
