Synopsis:
Wen knows what love looks like. Since
her mom died over a year ago, she’s seen it every day on her orphaned younger
brother’s face. Wen’s made good on her promise to her mom that she’d take care
of Ezra, even quitting her carefree party-girl ways to become a hard-working
college student so she can provide for him.
Wen knows what love feels like, too. Because when she touches people, she feels what they do. "Uniquely perceptive" is what her mom called it, and Wen’s not going to argue; she doesn’t know any different.
But an energy therapy study changes not only what Wen knows about her unusual gift; it also changes her. Now, instead of feeling emotions, her touch brings death to others. No one is safe around her, especially Ezra.
Wen turns to energy healers for help. And that’s where she meets him: Mr. Tenacious and Audacious, Gabe Dumas. He knows about love, too; he speaks it in ways Wen has never experienced. And he’s never even touched her.
With her heart unraveling, Wen discovers a world only she can see. It may offer hope for her condition… or it may be better left hidden.

Review:
Yes…Rachel
E. Kelly broke the bar when she penned this amazing novel!
The story of
Wendy and Ezra opens slowly like a flower to the morning sun…It felt as though
it was written to be read slowly, stoking the fires until it rages out of
control.
I thoroughly
enjoyed this read and normally if it’s to slow I skim or get lost…not the case
with Color World. The interaction with each character gives you depth into
their world; allowing you to get to know each of them on a personal level (Yes…I
know they’re not real but you get my meaning).
Wendy’s
story is complicated on many levels and I was happy with the ending and the
promise of the next book, knowing that her story will unravel before our eyes
more fully giving us an even better idea of what is going on in her life and
hopefully what happened in her past.
