Alex, spurred on by Isabelle's dreamwalking, decides to ask her out and gets rejected and dissed by her-yet he comes back for more. Max loves Liz but doesn't tell her-I think because he doesn't want to lose her friendship if she doesn't feel the same way-and she doesn't really think of him that way until Max attempts to form a connection between the two to make her feel better about who he really is. At least not until Max manages to form a connection between all 6 of them.

There's a lot of fear talking here but few of them are talking to each other. Isabelle has a fear of the sheriff even before all this comes down, but this intensifies her fear. Maria fears that Isabelle will make good on her threat (to hurt Maria). Michael and Isabelle are worried Maria (or Liz) will tell others the secret. Maria is fearful and, despite promising Liz she wouldn't tell anyone, tells their friend, Alex. Liz is shocked and uses Maria for a sounding board. Max decides to go against the pact he made with Michael and Isabelle and tell Liz the truth about who he is. Liz is shot during an altercation there, and Max heals her supposedly-fatal wound over the objection of his friend, Michael. Liz and her best friend, Maria, work at a diner owned by Liz's father. Though from what I've read from other reviewers, the books and the show aren't all that similar anyway.Lots of High School angst. I'm not sure I would have put my request for it in if I had since I've never watched the show.

I did not know when I requested to be entered that it was related to the 'Roswell' TV show. I was awarded the audiobook of this book through LibraryThing's Early Reviewer's group.
