Synopsis: Jessie moved from New York to North Carolina one week after school
let out for summer break. Her newly single mother and Jessie move in
with grandma Gayle. Being a teen in a retirement area, is one more thing
to add to her ‘this sucks’ list. It’s bad enough to have to move, but
even worse her alcoholic father left them as he went on a quest to be an
artist in Greece. Things begin to look up when she is reintroduced to Caleb, the dorky
boy that saved her life one summer at the beach. Caleb is no longer
scrawny and nerdy, he is now tall, dark and handsome. Caleb is a Light
Tamer. Jessie and Amber become fast friends. Amber is a no frills girl, her
snarky comments and sassy attitude will raise a few eyebrows and have
you laughing out loud. Amber is rough around the edges, a light tamer
with only two years left to find the one she is bound to. Her father’s
surfing accident left her dad paralyzed and her brother dead. This paranormal romance will keep you on the edge of your seat with
humor, romance, and determination. Fall head over heels for Caleb and
Jessie.In all honesty I love to read Young Adult books. To me it is a category that is filled with books adults love to read, as well as teenagers. The Light Tamer was told as a 1st person POV (Point Of View). The main character, Jessie is a 15yo who just moved to a new town. We all know moving to a new town is difficult - new friends, new cliques, new clothes fashion, teenage angst. Devyn Dawnson did a great job at describing the thoughts, feelings, and emotions that are displayed. I think putting the typical teenage worries into words is difficult, yet Dawnson did it. As you get to know Jessie and Caleb you instantly feel that connection between reader and character. By the end of the book you are anxiously waiting for the second story in the trilogy to find out more information and to answer those questions that are sitting on the back of your mind after reading this.
