Yara is beginning to understand just how much her life will change now that her Waker abilities have emerged. She has come to terms with the fact that seeing ghosts is part of her life, but she isn’t ready to let being a Waker dictate her choices. All she wants is a ghost-free senior year with her boyfriend, Brent, and her best friend, Cherie. But Yara soon discovers that there are more dark secrets in her school’s history than just the curse she broke. While an angry ghost makes Yara question everything she thought she knew about spirits, she and Brent learn that there are long reaching consequences to last year’s adventures. As new enemies emerge and old ghosts resurface, Yara finds herself in the center of another deadly mystery, and this time she has to contend with the living as well as the dead.

Sixteen-year-old Yara Silva has always known that ghosts walk alongside the living. Her grandma, like the other females in her family, is a Waker, someone who can see and communicate with ghosts. Yara grew up watching her grandmother taunted and scorned for this unusual ability and doesn't want that to be her future. She has been dreading the day when she too would see ghosts, and is relieved that the usually dominant Waker gene seems to have skipped her, letting her live a normal teenage life. However, all that changes for Yara on her first day at her elite boarding school when she discovers the gene was only lying dormant. She witnesses a dark mist attack Brent, a handsome fellow student, and rushes to his rescue. Her act of heroism draws the mist's attention, and the dark spirit begins stalking her. Yara finds herself entrenched in a sixty-year-old curse that haunts the school, threatening not only her life, but the lives of her closest friends as well. Yara soon realizes that the past she was trying to put behind her isn't going to go quietly.

It's been said, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. In the aftermath of an alien invasion, the old saying became literal.When the alien Orions attacked Earth, humanity had a choice: adapt or die. The result was a genetic division within the human race. Valudis are strong warriors, protectors who gain strength from injury, while for the weaker Debilii, the smallest hurt can be fatal. Brainwashed by the Orions, most Vals and Debs adore their alien overlords, but a small group of rebels struggle for freedom. Alongside the resisting Vals fights one lone Deb. Trained as a rebel and a spy from childhood, Lexie Hake is a Deb who refuses to accept limitations. Her work has been key to the resistance, but when she inadvertently alters her genetics, she also draws the attention of the Orions.

She's spent her whole life training for this, but training only gets a girl so far. Because if Lexie fails, humanity falls with her.

And thanks to the district’s school boundary changes, Jackie is getting a fresh start as a senior. She’s ready to make new friends, get her first boyfriend, and put Jordan behind her. Only there’s one problem: Jordan is at her new high school. How can she move on when she sees him every day? Jordan Knowles used to have it all. He was the starting quarterback with loads of money, Jackie for a best friend, and a gorgeous girlfriend, Anna. Then last year it all fell apart, and his family had to trade in their ritzy estate for a crappy apartment. The one bright spot of moving is the chance to go to a new school without Anna or Jackie. But on his first day, not only is he warming the bench, but he finds the two people he most wanted to avoid. Seeing Jackie reminds him that he really misses his best friend. More than he wants to admit.Though part of a series and tied to Breaking Pointe, it can easily be read as a stand alone.
