Review ~ TOUCH by Melissa Haag

A touch. That’s all it takes for Tessa to know her future with a boy. Her mom tells her she needs to choose her best option before she turns seventeen. Problem is, she sees all her ‘options’ dying before they turn thirty. That may have worked for the last fourteen generations of women in her family tree, but she can’t choose and condemn someone to an early grave.

 

An unfortunate incident at school starts a chain of events that reveals a centuries old chaos demon and a chance to remove her 'gift' forever.

REVIEW

I don't normally like or read paranormal books but Melissa Haag's books have been phenomenal and I'm really glad I gave her books a chance.  Touch is the 3rd book of hers that I've read and I enjoyed it very much.

 

Tessa is a sixteen-year-old girl that must choose a boy before she turns seventeen.  She can touch a potential boy and see their future together so she can decide which boy is the best option.  The downside…the boy dies at a young age leaving her as a single mother.  

 

This is a curse that's been passed down to all the women in her family for hundreds of years but no one knows why.  The family book they live by gives very cryptic information to the history but is all they have.   

 

Tessa finally learns the real reason behind the curse and decides to end it for her family once and for all.  

 

Tessa is strong and brave and the boy she chooses isn't any typical boy…he's the one that started the course of events in her family all those years ago.

 

A truly pleasing love story that again runs the gamut of emotions throughout the entire book.  I don't want to reveal all the secrets so you must read it for yourself…it's worth it!
