The Unsacred Gift by C. S. Dorsey

BLURB:

Have you ever had a dream that came to life? How about losing the one you love and not being able to save them? What about a gift that you were cursed with? Well image having all three like Sicily "Sissy" Monroe.

"Some might say what I have is a gift. I say, I want to return it." Sissy declares.
Sicily "Sissy" Monroe has all the qualities of a perfect young lady. She is almost where she wants to be in life. But lying deep in the pupil of her eyes hold something that she cannot get rid of which interferes with her plans. She fights everyday with no one but herself. After having her first vision at age six of her sister's (Misty) disappearance and the dreams of failing to save her, Sissy wants no part in another person's fate. For years Sissy tried hard to avoid contact with people because she feared foreseeing their death. In keeping with this, she tries to stay away from her family. Little did Sissy know she could not run from her past, or her gift. She hopes someone will put her out of her misery, but she will soon discover that her visions and dreams were just a mere image of herself.

Review:

I really liked this book. It had a good and interesting story line that made you keep flipping the pages. It must have been hard for Sissy to grow up trying not to have any physical contact with any person, oh wait she didn't (hehe). I thought that it was weird that no one ever even mentioned Misty and it kinda seemed like there was something I was missing, there was (you don't know it until the end). But WHOA, was not expecting that at the end.

It was interesting seeing the internal conflict with Sissy. She has always wanted to tell her mom or someone about her secret but she felt like she couldn't. One thing I would like to know more about is the twins, do they really hear whispers or not?

4/5 Stars.
