Ink (The Paper Gods Book 1)

INK IS IN THEIR BLOOD. On the heels of a family tragedy, Katie Greene must
move halfway across the world. Stuck with her aunt in Shizuoka, Japan, Katie feels lost.
Alone. She doesn't know the language, she can barely hold a pair of chopsticks, and
she can't seem to get the hang of taking her shoes off whenever she enters a
building. When Katie meets aloof but gorgeous Tomohiro, the star of the school's
kendo team, she is intrigued by him...and a little scared. His tough attitude seems
meant to keep her at a distance, and when they're near each other, strange things
happen. Pens explode. Ink drips from nowhere. And unless Katie is seeing things,
drawings come to life. Somehow Tomo is connected to the Kami, powerful ancient beings
who once ruled Japan - and as feelings develop between Katie and Tomo, things begin to
spiral out of control. The wrong people are starting to ask questions, and if they
discover the truth, no one will be safe.
