"A BRONZE medal winner and highly recommended."
--The Wishing Shelf Awards
Fall in love with the achingly beautiful story of Echo and Connor, supernaturally gifted teens, as they fight to live out their destiny together.
Echo had it all--she lived in a mansion in the wealthiest neighborhood and was a member of the Partychicks, the elite high school clique. But her enviable life was ripped apart when a bullying incident put her in a coma. When Echo wakes up, she's gained paranormal powers that she can't control.
Objects magically fly through the air. Lights flicker. Trees snap in half. Echo's untamed abilities wreak havoc on her life, and she will do just about anything to get rid of them. Even if it means sharing her secret with Connor, the gorgeous, frightening stranger who appears out of thin air and possesses shocking supernatural abilities. He promises to teach her things beyond her wildest dreams--if Echo has the courage to trust him.
Soon, she is pulled into a world of mystical possibility and starts falling hard for the enigmatic Connor. As Echo uncovers the truth about him, she discovers a dark secret brewing within her city: people with paranormal gifts are being kidnapped and murdered. Escaping with Connor would keep Echo alive, but at a high cost to him and to the future they both believe in. Echo must choose between her love for Connor and her own safety, but she can't have both.

About the Author
Genaro, Skye: - Skye Genaro is the award-winning author of teen paranormal romance books, novelettes and short stories. Echo Across Time, the first book in her series, received a Wishing Shelf bronze award for best teen book in 2015. She has also written several full length screenplays, one of which was optioned for production. She attended the University of Wisconsin-Madison and earned a Bachelor of Science in Microbiology and worked in market research in the technology sector for many years. After leaving the corporate world far behind she began honing her storytelling skills. She has worked in the writing industry for a decade as a booking and marketing agent, a conference coordinator for the Willamette Writers, and is a former Willamette Writers board member. As a volunteer, Skye reported on issues related to adult literacy, both locally and nationally, for Oregon Literacy. Skye loves writing about personal power, especially how girls and women tend to repress it, learn to embrace it, and eventually choose to use it. She writes about teen characters because those years are so important in defining a young woman's individuality and identity. When Skye set out to write the Echo Across Time series she thought it would be fun to take a look at the dynamics of personal power, but through a supernatural lens. In the series, Echo begins as a girl whose paranormal ability brings fear and upheaval into her life. Yet, by learning to embrace her unique gifts, she becomes a leader and a positive example of what is possible when we honor our true selves. One of Skye's favorite things to do is talk to students about writing, and she has spoken and taught at libraries and high schools in the U.S. Now taking advantage of technology, she also does Skype visits with classes and book clubs around the country. Popular topics with teachers and students include the life of an author and the craft of writing. To arrange a Skype visit, contact her at skyegenarobooks@gmail.com. When she's not writing, Skye is seeking out her next adventure. She and her husband can be found buzzing through the streets of Delhi on a tuk-tuk, rock climbing in Thailand, and canoeing whitewater rapids closer to home. She's visited seventeen countries to date, many of them more than once. A fan of libraries and their ongoing efforts to improve literacy, it is her personal goal to give away one of her e-books to every high school and middle library in the country. Skye lives in Portland with her husband. You can find out more about Skye at http: //skyegenaro.com, or contact her at skyegenarobooks@gmail.com.
