GEMS

By Holly Mayes

Sheltered and determined, 18-year-old Shayna Dare wants more than anything to be like those around her --- but she was genetically modified at birth and has the ability to move things with her mind and generate powerful energy beams with her hands. When her powers blossom beyond her control and she accidentally destroys an office building, she must decide whether to go underground or stay behind and risk being branded a threat to the world she so hopes will accept her. Finding shelter and support among others of similar abilities, Shayna desperately seeks a cure for her powers while learning to harness them - and slowly begins to accept herself in the process. She eventually gains the confidence and skill to become part of a varied and dynamic team to fight off the doctor who created them and is now bent on controlling them.G.E.M.S. tells the story of a young woman who must face the reality of who she is and shows that sometimes who you want to be, isn't as good as who, or what, you already are.
