By: Kelly Nelson
Pages: 312
Published On: February 20, 2012

Summary: Chase Harper's to-do list for senior year never included "fall in love" or "fight for your life," but things rarely go as planned. Tarnished gold  and resembling a pocket watch, the counter he finds in a cave during the summer of 2011 will forever change the course of his life, leading him to the beautiful Ellie Williams and unlocking a power beyond his wildest imagination. 

In 1863 complete's school in Boston and return's to the Utah Territory only to discover that her grandfather and his counter, a treasured family heirloom, are missing. When Ellie is abducted and told she must produce the counter or die, an unexpected rescuer comes to her aid.

Rating: 4.5

Review:
My dad got me this book because the author was doing signings at a Costco in Oregon. So this is my first signed my the author book.

The Storyline: It was exciting, creative, and different from anything else I have read. It is sad and cute. I just loved it!

The Writing Style: It is well written and keeps your attention and doesn't bore you at all.

The Characters: I loved that all the main characters were introduced within the first two or three chapters instead of taking seven. I loved Ellie SO much. Something about her made me love her and want what is good for her. I really liked Chase but even though he is the main character I still liked Ellie more. 

The Pace of the Book: It was well paced for the amount of time that was covered and what happened. It gets just a bit slow in the middle because less is happening but it picks up again and is really good.

Waiting for the Next Book: This book has such a happy nice ending I feel like it doesn't need a sequel but It has one. There is not even a title or release date for the next book so I will have to keep my eyes out for it. 

Other Stuff: It is a fabulous book. The rating is a 4.5 instead of a five because it wasn't a book that I felt like I couldn't put down when reading it until the very end. It didn't quite make my favourite's but it is still wonderful. I would defiantly recommend this book for someone who wants a happier (for the most part), cute book.

Hope Everyone is Awesome!! My next book on the list is Princess Academy, so I will probably start that today!
