I received a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review and I had a good feeling about this book. I wasn't to be let down; in fact, it far surpassed my imaginings!BRUSH of SHADE is about Olivia Pepperdine, a high school senior suffering serious mental trauma after a car wreck that killed her parents. Living with her aunt now, she has no choice when she's uprooted and moved from the big city to a valley community. To make matters worse, people seem to be looking at her funny. Could it be because they knew her parents, or does it go deeper than that?This book is filled with action without losing deep character development and strong, realistic voices. The progressions and the reactions are all completely believable. There's some romance and some mystery, and I found this book to be a fantastic joy. I very eagerly wait for book 2.
