WHAT WOULD YOU DO IF YOUR NIGHTMARES CAME TRUE? I've been able to read minds ever since I can remember, but NO ONE has ever pushed their thoughts at me, like Will Rossi. I have perfectly good reasons not to get involved with him: Reason #1: He's a jock, and jocks date lots of girls. Reason #2: I don't need drama with his ex. Reason #3: I can't let Will mess with my feelings any more than he already has. As Cassie gets closer to Will, she begins to have horrifying nightmares that come true. Can she learn to trust him before it's too late to prevent the tragedy she sees coming? This captivating novel by author Kathleen Harsch is the first book in the CHILDREN OF THE PSI series about teens with amazing abilities.
