Plot Synopsis

Chloe -- a smart, pretty, and slightly offbeat 16-year-old girl -- struggles to balance her life as a typical teenager with her newly discovered identity as an ancestor of an ancient race called the Mai, which has just recently given her supernatural powers and a mysterious pursuer. Struggling to understand what fate now has in store for her, Chloe begins to uncover more about her newfound abilities. With her childhood best friends, Amy and Paul, by her side to support her, Chloe must also figure out how -- or if -- she should tell her single mom, Meredith, with whom she shares a very strong bond. To help Chloe understand the history of the Mai, two of her fellow students, Alek and Jasmine, reveal to her that they, too, are descendants of the ancient race, which has been hunted by human assassins for millennia. She also learns quickly that she may ultimately be the Mai's only hope for survival, and these two just may be her best protectors. Through it all, Chloe develops a crush on a new boy, Brian, whose charming and unpretentious nature contradicts the wealthy lifestyle in which he grew up. As she explores her relationship with Brian, Chloe learns that, when it comes to guys, things are much more complicated than they appear.
