Pale girl. Freak. Vampire. Ghost. They say death rides a pale horse... Sophie is very much alive. Sophie used to think she was beautiful, a literal incarnation of Snow White. That was before the bullying began—and never really stopped. Even choosing a college in a tiny mountain town doesn't stop the stares and whispers. Pale Girl... Freak. Vampire. Ghost. Sophie doesn't know her own secrets. What makes her so pale? What causes flames to dance from her fingertips and in the depths of her eyes? Does the mysterious man she crashes into on campus know the answers to her questions? Jesse keeps a low profile. He knows friendships are dangerous and love is out of the question. He wasn't supposed to find Sophie. He wasn't supposed to fall in love with everything about her. But when she learns the truth about what he is, what she might be, too; will she run from him and retreat deeper into herself? Or can they save each other?
