Though she has the aid of her father and some new friends, there is only one who has the real power to help. A rogue monster named Jackhammer Jack. But he might want her secret, too, even as he helps her evade the clutches of those pursuing her.

Filled with action, excitement, magic, a touch of romance, and mystery, A Glimpse of Her Soul is a pulse-pounding ride you're sure to enjoy.

My Review:
First things first, I love this cover. I love the expression on the girls face.
Now for the book. I think this was a great mix between Fantasy and Suspense. There were definitely some darker elements from your typical Teen Fantasy Novel.
I liked the main character and she was multi-dimensional which helped her be relatable. The plot was fast paced and keep me on the edge of my seat.
Definitely a Fun and Eerie read.
