Hidden powers. Otherworldly boyfriends. FORBIDDEN SECRETS. For Aislinn Moore, attending college at seventeen isn’t a big deal. Not when compared to the difficulties associated with seeing ethereal beings and having prophetic dreams. As Aislinn learns to surmount the obstacles of her talents, she awakens something inside herself—an ancient memory, long forgotten. She senses there are reasons for her gifts, but remains unable to understand them. When Alexander Welch enters her life, she learns of the Ewlishash—the hope bringers—and thinks she may have found her answer. Alexander is sexy, sweet, and his talents are like something straight out of a Sci-Fi flick. Aislinn wonders if she may be like him, but the more she tries to fit his mold, the more her instincts scream that her destiny holds something even greater.

My Review:
I enjoyed reading The Heart-Shaped Emblor. I would give this book a 3.5, and my reason is soley I felt as though some times with the paranormal explanations I would just feel confused, and I caught myself wondering why sometimes certain things were included in the storyline.
Aislinn is a 17 (soon to be 18) year old girl, who has always experienced vivid prophetic dreams, and wonders 'did I really just talk to a ghost?' and has a lot to learn in what feels like just a few short weeks.
She discovers new things about herself, as well as her past, and is finally given an answer to what all her dreams have been about. Aislinn's character grows and her abilities list grows more and more as she spends time with her very literal 'man of her dreams'. She is given a lot of new information and does her best to cope with all that she's being told, at times it can be hard for her to understand all that she can do as she's had no relationship to the paranormal world before getting to really know her "odd" friend Hope and fate (or Jarwin) finally introduces her dream man Alexander.
Hope an Alexander guide her on her abilities and together they all learns she's far more powerful than any of them knew.
