Maddie Fynn is a shy
high school junior, cursed with an eerie intuitive ability: she sees a
series of unique digits hovering above the foreheads of each person she
encounters. Her earliest memories are marked by these numbers, but it
takes her father’s premature death for Maddie and her family to realize
that these mysterious digits are actually death dates, and just like
birthdays, everyone has one.
Forced by her alcoholic mother to use her ability to make extra money, Maddie identifies the quickly approaching death date of one client's young son, but because her ability only allows her to see the when and not the how, she’s unable to offer any more insight. When the boy goes missing on that exact date, law enforcement turns to Maddie.
Soon, Maddie is entangled in a homicide investigation, and more young people disappear and are later found murdered. A suspect for the investigation, a target for the murderer, and attracting the attentions of a mysterious young admirer who may be connected to it all, Maddie's whole existence is about to be turned upside down. Can she right things before it's too late?

This book sounds great. I know there are a lot of books out there like it, but hopefully this one if very different.
OOoh nice! I just read this one not too long ago! I really liked it! I love Victoria's adult series and this one kind of had some of the same themes! Netgalley had it in case you didn't know! Hope you love it too!
