Synopsis
When a strange boy tumbles down a river embankment and lands at her feet, seventeen-year-old adrenaline junkie Deznee Cross snatches the opportunity to piss off her father by bringing the mysterious hottie with ice blue eyes home.
Except there’s something off with Kale. He wears her shoes in the shower, is overly fascinated with things like DVDs and vases, and acts like she’ll turn to dust if he touches her. It’s not until Dez’s father shows up, wielding a gun and knowing more about Kale than he should, that Dez realizes there’s more to this boy—and her father’s “law firm”—than she realized.
Kale has been a prisoner of Denazen Corporation—an organization devoted to collecting “special” kids known as Sixes and using them as weapons—his entire life. And, oh yeah, his touch? It kills. The two team up with a group of rogue Sixes hellbent on taking down Denazen before they’re caught and her father discovers the biggest secret of all. A secret Dez has spent her life keeping safe.
A secret Kale will kill to protect.

When privileged 17-year-old Jasmine gets kicked out of her house, she takes what is left of her savings and flees to Santa Cruz to pursue her dream of becoming a musician. Jasmine finds the ideal room in an oceanfront house, but she needs to convince the three guys living there that she's the perfect roommate and lead guitarist for their band, C-Side. Too bad she has major stage fright and the cute bassist doesn't think a spoiled girl from over the hill can hack it. . .

et le deuxième :Quand Jasmine, 17 ans et plutôt gâtée, est mise à la porte de chez elle, elle emmène toutes ses économies et s'envole pour Santa Cruz à la poursuite de son rêve d'être musicienne. Jasmine trouve un logement parfait dans une maison en face de l'océan, mais elle a encore besoin de convaincre les trois garçons qui vivent là qu'elle est la colocataire parfaite et la guitariste rêvée pour leur groupe, C-Side.
Manque de chance, elle a un trac terrible et le bassiste, bien que mignon, ne pense pas qu'une fille gâtée qui vient des quartiers chic peut le surmonter...

Et enfin un avis de Bookaholic, sur un roman qui semble avoir plu tout de même. Son avis ICI.
Publisher: Flux (February 8th, 2012)
Reading Level: Young Adult
Paperback: 228 pages

Rating: 4 of 5 stars
I never meant for anyone to get hurt. All I wanted to do that night was make a play for Carter Wellesley. His heartless rejection was mortifying, but people got the wrong idea when they saw me leaving his bedroom, crying. That's how rumors of rape started.
Now girls at school are pouring out their sympathy to me. Guys too. But not everyone's on my side. The school has become a war zone and the threats are getting scary. What began as poetic justice has morphed into something bigger--forcing me to make a terrible choice.
Recommended: Great book for teens and contemporary lovers. Quick read with a great message.
Je n'ai jamais voulu que quelqu'un soit blessé. Tout ce que je voulais c'était passer une soirée avec Carter Wellesley. Son rejet cruel m'a laissée mortifiée, mais les gens se sont imaginé des choses quand ils m'ont vu quitter sa chambre en pleurant. C'est comme ça que les rumeurs de viol ont commencé à circuler.________________________________________
A présent, les filles de l'école me témoignent leur sympathie. Les garçons aussi. Mais tout le monde n'est pas de mon côté. L'école est devenue une zone de guerre et les menaces deviennent de plus en plus effrayantes. Ce qui avait commencé comme une justice assez poétique est en train de devenir quelque chose de beaucoup plus important - me forçant à faire un choix terrible.
