YA
Laurel's sudden discovery that she is a fairy makes high school particularly challenging. Torn between her human friend David and charming fairy Tamani, Laurel fights to protect both the gateway that separates the two worlds and her own heart. Pike's perceptive depictions of high school are more compelling than the histrionic fantasy adventures that fill the book's second half.
