Goodread:
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.


Corinne is a normal teenage girl until one day a bake salechanges everything! When people who have ate her cakes start acting strangly towards her she has no idea whats going on but they all have one thing in common.... her cakes! and theres only one different ingredianet in them... her nanas food dyes! in search for answers she stumble upon someone who is out to get her! with haunting dreams of dark forces, a strange connection to her almost boyfriend and a crazed woman ou to get her corinne must find out who her nana really was and what these family secrets mean!

I've had this book on my kindle for a while but didnt no what to expect, i knew it was up my street so i had to read it!

I really liked the storyline it was like nothing i have read before so i loved the idea, i was laughing so much at the experiemnts they do because it reminded me of my days at uni and the experiments we had to do! I nearly cried at this book and not because it was sad but her nana dies and she has to cook in her nanas house and be in the house without her nana, after i lost my nana i found being in her house hard and cooking things we cooked together really had so i thought that part of the story was sad!  i thought the overall plot was good because you can see that things are happening and unraveling and your just waiting for something to come and get her!

All of the characters in the book are great! Corinne is just a normal teenager that has to come to terms with the fact her life is not going to play out the way she thought it would. Her friend is equally good  and Mason is sweet!

I really  enjoyed the book it was a nice read, good plot, i cant wait to read the next one and see how their lives play out
