Synopsis:
As her eighteenth birthday approaches and she feels the strange and powerful energy building, disaster looms. When the inevitable explosion occurs, her life gets its biggest shakeup yet. She'll not only learn how her fellow foster and best friend, Gabriel, really feels about her, but she'll discover that she isn't really without family.
To top it all off, she'll finally find out why she's having the power surges: she isn't entirely human.
Amber must Become, transitioning to another plane of existence and risking the loss of the most important relationship she's ever had. Her choice will impact the future of an entire race of beings, and will pit her against an enemy that will prey upon her doubt to try and take her very life.
Kind of makes the explosions now seem like a cakewalk.

Every three years, something strange happens to Amber Hopkins and leaves her life a mess! She has already been through five foster homes, and she is doing everything she can to prevent going to a sixth. As her eighteenth birthday is getting closer, she can feel a surge of energy building up, getting stronger than all of the past surges. When she finally explodes, her life gets the biggest twist ever. She learns that her best friend and fellow foster, Gabriel, really has a feeling and she discovers that she is not a whole human. You must read the book to find out more.
I really enjoyed this book; I am totally looking forward to reading the next books. Raine Thomas really knows how to make you want more. This book will make you laugh, smile, and almost make you cry. I love it so much.
