Book #1
When Hayley’s best friend, Becca, overdoses and nearly dies in the school bathroom one day, Leo, the most gorgeous guy in school, comes to their rescue and saves Becca’s life. He’s everything a hero should be: hot, chivalrous, mysterious, with eyes that penetrate into her soul, and all bundled together in a nice, eighteen year old package. It should be the beginning of an legendary high-school romance, the kind where she’d be immortalized forever in the jealous memories of every classmate. . . except that everything about him, down too his face and his name, was a big, whopping lie.
It turns out his eyes are so soul-penetrating because, as a telepath, he literally knows what she’s thinking and feeling every second of the day. And he’s only incredibly hot because of his ability to shape-shift to blend in. Wouldn’t you pick the best face out there if you could turn into anyone you wanted? Besides all that, he’s almost a hundred years old, from another planet, from another human species, and the leader of a small scouting party sent ahead to Earth to determine the best approach to making the planet an ally in a war against the savage, cannibalistic Daisini.
With such a mission of galactic proportions, why choose to be a teenager? Hayley hardly gets the chance to find out because she’s too busy trying not to get killed by a rogue Daisini warrior whom Leo unwittingly brought with him to Earth seven years ago. But, what’s an angsty, teenage, romance without some conflict? Especially in the form of a murderous, psycho, alien stalker who wants to eat your eyes.
