Corinne lives an average teenage life working at her dad’s cafe, hanging out with her best friend, and trying to forget a falling-out with her almost-boyfriend Mason. Things take a strange turn when she uses her late grandmother’s food dyes for a bake sale, and her customers suddenly find her irresistibly alluring. Then she discovers she and Mason are haunted by the same dreams of a dark force that consumes everything in its path.
Pursued by shadowy figures and a crazy woman with secrets from the past, Corinne must find out who her grandmother really was. In her quest to unravel her family’s history, she learns she is destined to protect this world--and the dark world of her dreams. She races to find the answers she seeks before her nightmares break free.
WOW this is a fast paced refreshing story that you will not be able to put down. The characters. K.C. has created you can’t help but to love them. Corinne is a typical high school student at least that is what she thought until she found the Pyxis box that her grandmother had left her when she passed away. Not knowing what it was and thinking the bottles inside it were food coloring she inadvertently used the blue and yellow to make petit fours for a bake sale at school. Corinne soon figures out that something is different with the students that have eaten her petit fours. She tells her BFF ( Angeline ) that things seem strange and together they link it back to the Pyxis box. While examining the box they find a secret compartment that holds a list and they discover their names on it along with Mason a sorta BF to Corinne. Who at the time was in Africa with his parents but will be returning home soon. Corinne, Mason, and Angeline go on a journey to figure out what the Pyxis box is all about and what roles they play in. To sum things up Pyxis is a fast paced read that has romance, mystery, and some awesome paranormal all in one. When you read this book it will leave you wanting the next book like right then and there. That is how good this book is but don’t just take my word go and buy it and she for yourself. I promise you will not be disappointed.
