I am very excited to be a part of the Hunted Blog Tour! Author Cheryl Rainfield is stopping by today with an awesome guest post, plus there's a giveaway! I LOVED Hunted and you can find out why by reading my review.
Caitlyn is a telepath in a world where having any Paranormal power is illegal. Caitlyn is on the run from government troopers, who can enslave, torture, or even kill her, or make her hunt other Paranormals. When Caitlyn settles down in a city, she falls for Alex, a Normal (someone without Paranormal powers), which is dangerous because he can turn her in. And she discovers renegade Paranormals who want to destroy all Normals. Caitlyn must decide whether she's going to stay in hiding to protect herself, or take a stand to save the world.

I would want to read people's minds. I'm paranoid and nosy and want to know what people are thinking all the time. lol

I would like to be able to control the weather.
There is such a variety of paranormal powers to choose from. It's hard to choose one, let alone a few. I think it would be cool to have some sort of control over the elements. Most of the time that's in the form of "doing magic." Like if I could create fire from my palms or conjure up water, I'd be happy with myself.
I would want to be able to read minds.
Thanks for the giveaway!
