Sixteen-year-old Willow is your average high school student. Except, Willow has a secret that she keeps hidden from other people. Willow can heal animals but, her parents forbid her from using her powers because they fear for her safety. Unfortunately, Willow can't seem to keep her promise and ends up using her powers to help the sick animals.
Willow has to hide her abilities because a group known as Trident, targets people like her. People with special abilities are feared and hated by people without special abilities. Willow is content with keeping her abilities a secret but, when her friend's life becomes endangered, Willow must decide if she is willing to get involved or sit in the sidelines.
The novel had a similar feel to other superhero storylines where the young hero must decide if they are willing to use their gift for the greater good. I thought the novel is a refreshing read but, I found some of the language to be "off". For example, a high school student calling their mother "a feisty little thing". Personally, that just seems weird referring to a parent that way. Overall, it was an entertaining read and I am interested in reading the next novel in the series.

Willow is just your average sixteen-year-old girl. Okay, maybe not so average. She can heal animals. For her own safety, her veterinarian parents have made her promise not to use her powers. But sometimes her compassion just takes over, and she can't help ... well ... helping.
Willow is a Droit, but hides her Droitism because people like her are feared and hated by those without special abilities. Two of Willow's schoolmates, rumored to be Droits, have simultaneously disappeared.
When Willow's non-Droit friend, Rain, is targeted, Willow wonders whether she should get involved--even if that means putting herself in the line of fire.
A mysterious new friend, Trae, just might be the key to unlock her courage.
In the end, she has a choice: she can deny who she is or declare her ability to heal, but either way, her life will never be the same again.

She grew up in the burbs of Detroit with five brothers. No sisters. Each
time her mom brought the boy bundle home from the hospital Michelle cried,
certain her mom liked boys better than girls. But when her brothers pitched in
with the cooking, cleaning, and babysitting--without drama, Michelle discovered
having brothers wasn't so bad. They even taught her how to take direct
criticism without flinching, which comes in handy with book reviews.
