Haven't heard of FULL FUSION? Check it out!
Eighteen-year-old Roxie Sebastian lives a charmed life, and she knows it. Too bad she can't feel it.
All her life, she's felt disconnected from the world around her. Everything changes just before graduation, when she's drawn to an eerie, brilliant light-which narrowly misses her as it blows up her friend Lincoln's car. Clearly someone's after Roxie, and finally Lincoln tells her the truth: He and Roxie are angels, beings from another dimension, and that light is her soul, separated from her human body in a traumatic birth.
Once a skeptical Roxie rules out the other possibilities-like Lincoln created this delusion to escape his abusive father-she accepts her gut-deep knowledge of the truth. But someone has been screwing with her light, using it to commit crimes, and their actions are about to cause irreparable damage to two worlds: the one she lives in, and the one she can't remember.
Aided by her best friend Jordan, her boyfriend Tucker, and Lincoln, Roxie tracks down the criminal and uncovers many more secrets not only of her past, but of the history of their race on Earth. And then Roxie faces a horrible dilemma-the only way she can stop them from ripping apart both worlds is to fuse with her light...which could be tainted by the evil with which it was used.
Now on to the playlist!
Top 5 favorite
scenes and why.
1.
Any scene with the twins in it.
Roxie has two five-year-old twin sisters. They are
savvy little minxes, knowing just how to play the right level of cuteness to
wrap Roxie and her friends around their little fingers. And they’re a huge
reason Roxie continues to fight when things get darkest.
2. The scene when
Lincoln tells Roxie that she’s half angel.
This is the big revelation that makes her life make
sense and sends her on the big journey across all three books. Also, he’s in
her room and not supposed to be, and her mother comes in and makes everything
very tricky. I never had to hide a guy behind my door when I was in high
school, but if I had, the scene would have been very much like the one in the
book. Roxie’s mom is a lot like my mom was. She died before I wrote this book,
but I like to think she wouldn’t mind the parallels.
3. The Big Fight
Roxie is on this quest to find her soul with the help
of her best friend Jordan, her boyfriend Tucker, and their friend Lincoln, who
is also half angel. They’re the kinds of friends who will, you know, duck out
on the senior trip to help you save the world. But they’re also human, and the
fight comes as a huge surprise, leaving Roxie alone and feeling ripped apart
even more than she had been when her soul was taken. How can this be one of my
favorite scenes? Because I know the reconciliation is coming!
4. Saving the World
Roxie battles through the whole book with the decision
whether or not to fuse with her soul once she gets it back. The light is like a
concentrated power source, and someone has been using it to do bad things.
She’s afraid that it’s tainted, and fusing with it will change her in bad ways.
But it’s a missing part of her, so of course she wants to be whole. In the end,
she doesn’t have time to agonize over the decision, and love is the only
driving force in what happens.
5. Saving Lincoln
After Roxie saves the world (spoiler alert! [except
not really, I only write happy endings!]), her challenges aren’t over. Lincoln
is in mortal danger, and Roxie needs him. She can’t face her new reality
without someone’s help. I really love how she faces the challenge of her new
powers seconds after receiving them.
