Garden of Ash by RebeccaKLamprey

On her eighteenth birthday, Poppy expected a cake, some presents and maybe a hug or two from her friends. What she didn't expect was a streak of blue light blazing across the sky-and a boy who no one else remembers. He's called Riven, and he is a mystery wrapped in shadows. For reasons she can't explain, she sees him clearly when everyone else forgets. As their lives entwine, Poppy's instincts sharpen into something dangerous. She can feel the weight of people's souls tilting toward light or darkness, and a seal burns across her skin whenever her power threatens to break free. The more she learns about herself, the more she suspects the truth: she is not just human-and the balance of life and death has marked her as its heir. When a string of murders tears through her small California town, Poppy and Riven are pulled into a deadly mystery. To protect her friends, Poppy must choose whether to hide behind the fragile normal life she's always wanted-or embrace the dangerous legacy that ties her to death itself. **Slow-burn romance. Myth, mystery, and a touch of danger. Perfect for fans of The Raven Boys and Twilight.**
