Sixteen year old Bianca is understandably upset when her parents decide to take teaching positions at Evernight Academy since this means she'll be leaving her friends and old school behind as well.

So when Bianca meets Lucas, who though good looking is seemingly normal, she's instantly smitten with him. But does he feel the same? And what will he do if he learns her secret?
