What if you could predict the future? What if you could predict disasters that have not yet occurred? Would you stop them, even if it meant risking your own life? Meet sixteen year old Emmery Willows, who is doing just that. Instead of worrying about school and homework, she has to worry about bombs and car crashes and how to prevent them from happening. Her life takes a bizarre turn with a chance meeting with a boy called Hudson Matthews, who shares her abilities. As the two set about saving the lives of those around them, an unlikely friendship forms. But as feelings blossom into something more, something dark is on the loose. Someone, or something is trying to stop the work of the two teenagers, threatening their lives and ensuring that the disasters happen. As a tragic event, that Emmery may not be able to stop looms around the corner, can she save those she loves? Maybe some disasters are meant to happen. Like falling in love when you least expect it. *~*~*~*` If anyone was to look at Emmery Willow, they'd think that she's just an average hard working teenager. But you know what they say, 'Dont judge a book by its cover.' Emmery had kept her secret of future sightings to herself. That is until she moved next door to a (good-looking) young man known as Hudson Matthews. He'd saved her life once, but that wasn't where the story ended; infact It all began from there. Hudson had a bad reputation at school, but Emmery thinks otherwise. Soon, Emmery finds out that her chances of getting killed increases everytime she gets closer to Hudson. Now that she knows that there is another person who understands her secret better than anyone else, would she have the ability to stay away from him? Would he stay away her to keep her safe?
