Freak
"Rocks exploded around her, driftwood burst apart. A maelstrom of destruction swirled around her in an unstoppable storm until, at last, she collapsed to her knees, emotionally and physically spent."
Cat McFarlane is different. She's known it since she nearly destroyed the school auditorium at eight years of age. Problem is, the rest of the school knows it too and even though she's been a model human being ever since, they're not about to let her forget she's a freak! But that's okay with Cat; she doesn't mind keeping a low profile as long as nobody gets hurt. Except her safe little bubble is about to get rocked... big time. Cat's fragile hold on her control just might be the first casualty.
An isolated, lonely girl with a terrible secret.
A rebellious, self-centred boy with a powerful gift.
Neither of them is looking for love, but when an unlikely friendship develops fate might just override their wishes!

About the author
Kate Harre
10 books12 followersI am into keeping fit, but only because I know it is good for my long-term health and because I need to balance out my love for ice cream, chocolate and cheese – all of which I like snacking on while getting lost in a good book. Because as far as I am concerned, life would be boring without books to read and friends to talk about them with.

I'm a sucker for a good romance with a decent amount of angst but a believable development of the relationship between the hero and heroine - falling in love too quickly without good reason drives me around the bend!
Freak definitely ticked the boxes for me with excellent character development, great banter between the characters and loads of feels. The growth both the main characters go through is believable and also quite sweet in some places.
And there's magic - yay!
The writing is terrific and not dumbed down to a perceived teenage level (which as an adult reader can be a bit frustrating!!!). Definitely worth a read. And I really hope Marcus gets his own story!
