Now she is beginning to doubt everything she holds true—her firends, her relationship with Micahel, and even her identity.

Annotation
As her sixteenth birthday approaches, Vanessa, a girl with the power to become invisible, worries that the other goddesses are shutting her out, fears a demon sent by the Atrox, and desires a handsome stranger.
Stacy Dillon - VOYA
The seventh installment of the Daughters of the Moon series focuses on Vanessa's changing life. Her sixteenth birthday is approaching, and instead of feeling excitement, she is filled with dread. She is one year away from having to decide if she will "make the transition." Vanessa is not a regular girl, you see-she is a goddess. As it happens, so are all her friends. The transition involves the decision of committing to being a goddess forever, or resigning oneself to being human. Vanessa's birthday is not the only thing bothering her. She is yearning to break free from her good-girl image. The opportunity to do so manifests itself in the appearance of Hector-a dark and mysterious stranger. Hector is obviously drawn to Vanessa, and she does not shy away from him. Around him she can be whomever she chooses. Is Hector who he says he is, or is he a part of the powerful Atrox? This story is predictable and does not hold many surprises. The reader knows who Hector is simply by reading the prologue. Teens, however, will relate to the plot that deals with issues such as relationships, friendship, and feelings of isolation. Aside from the forced skater slang that is unlike that of real-life, many teens, including fans of L. J. Smith and Buffy the Vampire Slayer, will enjoy this latest installment.
