Young Adult Paranormal

Ever Bloom is trying to learn as much as she can about her new abilities being an immortal, as well her destined love Damen. He has searched for hundreds of years to find her again and again, only to lose her, but now that immortal road block, namely Drina, has been removed, and they can start living and loving as he has always wanted and she looks forward to.

That is up until a new student, Roman, joins Ever's high school. This flashy bloke from across the pond seems intent on winning everyone in the school, including Ever, but she has a strong dislike of him from the beginning. So while her friends, and even her beloved Damen, begin to drift away from her, Ever wonders what it is about Roman, besides stealing her friends, that makes her not like him so. However, this is not her worst problem. Damen is suddenly getting sick; something immortals never do.

Ever travels to travel to the mystical realm of Summerland, where she may learns of Damen's past as well the secrets to passages through time. With this information, Ever is faced with making a choice between going back and saving her family or staying and saving Damen.

Alyson Noel's BLUE MOON is the second book in her Immortals series of which she plans there to be a total of five books. Her characters are well drafted, giving Ever a lot of the aspects that almost every sixteen year old girl would want, yet still leaving major obstacles around each of those aspects as well, grounding them in reality. I do recommend reading EVERMORE, the first of the Immortals series, in order for the reader to get a better picture of who the characters are.

SUMMARY

Eager to learn everything she can about her new abilities as an Immortal, Ever turns to her beloved Damen to show her the way. But just as her powers are increasing, Damen’s are waning.

In an attempt to save him, Ever travels to the magical dimension of Summerland, where she learns the secrets of Damen’s tortured past; a past which he has always kept hidden from her. But in her quest to cure Damen, Ever discovers an ancient text that details the workings of time. Now Ever must chose between turning back the past and saving her family from the accident that claimed their lives—or staying in the present and saving Damen, who grows sicker every day...
