About this ebook

Gwen's life has been a rollercoaster since she discovered she was the Ruby, the final member of the secret time-traveling Circle of Twelve. In between searching through history for the other time-travelers and asking for a bit of their blood (gross!), she's been trying to figure out what all the mysteries and prophecies surrounding the Circle really mean.

At least Gwen has plenty of help. Her best friend Lesley follows every lead diligently on the Internet. James the ghost teaches Gwen how to fit in at an eighteenth century party. And Xemerius, the gargoyle demon who has been following Gwen since he caught her kissing Gideon in a church, offers advice on everything. Oh, yes. And of course there is Gideon, the Diamond. One minute he's very warm indeed; the next he's freezing cold. Gwen's not sure what's going on there, but she's pretty much destined to find out.

Ratings and reviews

I have been unable to put down the first series of this book. Its full of romance, adventure and mysteries. I am excited for the next. Nicely written!

This book had me hooked, I loved it. Its weird I never loved a book so much,I can't wait for a third. If they made this into a movie they'll make so much money of it.

Really fun and interesting, and I loved every minute of reading this book. Gwen's a great hero, much more self-reliant than other YA girls.
