The Fifth

Suzanne Parker hates her new life. She used to have wicked friends and a boyfriend old enough to buy beer, but her parents freaked out and moved her to the vanilla suburb of Benowa. Now all she has is her dog, a silent cell phone, and a jock named Gabriel who keeps trying to be her "friend."But Gabriel--football player and member of student council--is more than the stereotypical face he presents to the world. He's an Elemental, a person born with magic, and he says that Suzanne is one, too. If she chooses magic, Suzanne is stuck in Benowa with Gabriel forever; if she doesn't, she'll be free, but alone and vulnerable to other Elementals who want her power for themselves. And Gabriel is not the only one who has noticed her...
