Book Review- Drawn by Cecilia GraySasha is a special person.  She has an exceptional ability.  She is able to get people to tell the truth.  Unfortunately it has affected every relationship she has ever had.  Her parents abandoned her and she was bounced from foster home to foster home.  She caught the notice of the FBI.  They recruited her when she was twelve.  They gave her a handler, who became her guardian, named Chelsea Tanner.  Sasha was now known as the human lie detector and helped with cases.  She and Chelsea became partners.After an important case was coming to a close, Sasha and Chelsea were approached by the CIA.  They wanted Sasha to work on a case in Belgium.  They were looking for a graffiti artist and Sasha was just the person to do it.  Sasha would do her best because she needed to.  She didn’t have anything if she didn’t have her work.  A regular life was not for her.She moved in with a CIA agent and his family.  She became “friends” with the agent’s daughter.  Sasha was then included into her circle of friends.  These friends were graffiti artists and Sasha was sure they would lead her to the one she was looking for.However, she began to feel part of the group and care for the circle that became her friends.  In fact her feelings for a certain boy, Sabastien, were extremely confusing for her.  She didn’t think they were real and she wasn’t capable of having a relationship like that.  She had a job to do and using these artists was part of it.  Of course, the closer she got the more she questioned herself.I really like this author.  She is a new find for me.  I have read and loved her Jane Austen Academy stories.  This book is the first in a new series.  I instantly felt sorry for Sasha.  She knows she is being used by the agencies.  She feels that she can’t have a normal life or normal relationships. She needs someone to love her though. I really hope to see Sabastien show up again in future books. This is an excellent story that is well written.  I recommend this book to any young adult reader.  I give it a 4 out of 5.
