Summary: When Jasmine moves to Omaha, Ne with her Colonel father as he works on top secret matters at Offut Air Force Base, she prepares herself for another lonely station. Jasmine meets Yumi, a mysterious girl in Art Class, and her world changes.
Jasmine plots to stay in Omaha but the acceptance of Yumi's housemates is central to her plans. Their rejection surprises her until she realizes they have a secret. For a chance at stability and blossoming love, Jasmine puts herself in harm's way to rescue Yumi and find the home she's been searching for since her mother died.

The Review
Cute, charming, unique, different, so many words can describe this story.  When I started reading this story I didn’t know what to think about it because it appeared in a smashwords search, and the cover pulled me in. Plus a summary can only so much about the book.
At some points you will be pulling your hair yelling for a couple certain characters to stop being jerks. But that was the character's personality, and she hit them dead on.
Jasmines just the daughter of a traveler, rather she likes it or not she has to move. Jasmine is a strong character who will fight for what she believes is right. It might not be something big, but what she wants she will get one way or another. Then we have Yumi the nice one in her group of “friends”. By the end you’ll hopefully love the two or like them at least. Finally we have Honorio, captain anger pants. Give him a chance and he’ll grow on you.  Don’t like him? To bad deal with it. ;)
If you want a cute sci fi story then this one is for you. It’s pretty clean so young audiences can read it.  Now go tonder and read the story then spread its story. Now will I read the next one? Yeah. :)

    1. I'm a easily distracted writer who's so slow I barely get anything written. :} I write young adult with a slight dark edge.
