True Colors & Two
Faced by Melissa Pearl
REVIEW BLITZ
Caitlyn Davis always
cruised through life, not being the type to ruffle feathers or involve herself
in high school drama. That is, until a chance encounter with a strange,
homeless man changes everything.
Suddenly, Caitlyn has
the ability to see behind people's masks. She discovers that her life isn’t as
simple as she imagined and high school is filled with secrets...some very
sinister ones.
Unable to ignore her
new gift, Caitlyn embarks on a mission to learn why one of her friends suddenly
appears terrified, but masks her fear with a bright, smiling veneer. Will
Caitlyn's new ability lead her into hot water? Or is her new found vision a
blessing that will expose her friends' true colors?
Her quest will lead
Caitlyn to lose friends, stand up for those in need, and even find love.
At Palisades High
School every face tells a story...
Review
A little teaser that made me smile
“You mean like, control my...”
“Power. Yes.”
“It’s so not a power.”
“Are you kidding me? It’s like a super power.”
“How can you say that? This is like the world's worst hex.”
He grinned. “Just wait ’til you can control it. You’ll be like Mind Girl.”
“That’s...” I wrinkled my nose. “That’s really lame.”
“Yeah, yeah I know. I’ll keep working on it.” He winked.
I blushed. “You just told me it wasn’t that weird. Giving me a superhero name is so not helping.”

True Colors is the story of Caitlyn Davis she has her whole
life changed forever on the night she meets a stranger in the alley. Gifted
with the ability to see past what people are really feeling isn’t going to be
easy for Caitlyn when she learns that her boyfriend cares more about getting
some than about her. As Caitlyn learns to deal with her new gift will she turn
it into a blessing or a curse? Will she survive high school learning secrets
that could tear hear world apart? What about the neighbor guy she’s been
crushing on he seems to be genuine.
I really like Caitlyn, it’s not easy finding out the people
you thought you could trust aren’t good people but she accepts it well. She
learns to deal with her gift of being able to read people much better than I
would even if she did sort of attempt to run away. I really like Eric he works
well for Caitlyn and I hope to see more of him in the next book.
This isn’t my first book by Melissa Pearl so I knew I was
going to fall in love with her newest series which I did. I love the romance
mixed with the paranormal elements it creates a captivating story that I had a
hard time putting down. The characters are easy to connect with you can’t help
loving Caitlyn and enjoying her story. Granted it is a little on the emotional
side but I think that just makes it a better story. The author has created a
beautiful story filled with romance, and mystery that kept me captivated to the
very last page. I can’t wait to read the next book in the series and see what happens
to Caitlyn next. Love the covers super stunning. It’s a clean book that teens
as well as adults will enjoy I did.

Caitlyn Davis has an
unusual gift. She knows exactly how people feel. Everyone wears a mask, but she
sees the hidden truth. This ability has changed her life, both for the better
and worse. She can choose to ignore what she sees...but what happens when it
involves the guy she loves?
Eric Shore knew
getting involved with a girl who could read people was risky, but he couldn't
help himself. Caitlyn is gorgeous and he loves being with her. Their
relationship is going great...until she tells him that his step-brother and
star basketball player, Connor, is doing drugs. Having looked up to the guy for
years, Eric just can't buy it. Things only get worse when Caitlyn questions the
true nature of Eric's favorite teacher.
The first year at
college is supposed to be amazing, but theirs is off to a rocky start. As masks
are peeled away, secrets will be exposed, dangers will be revealed, and both
must decide out of the people closest to them, who is telling the truth...and
who is being two-faced.
