Meet ordinary teens with extraordinary powers in the award-winning Farsighted Series. Plus-sized Simmi Shergill doesn't need to use her gift of psychic feeling to lure Alex and Dax into falling for her; they do that on their own. Choosing between the blind seer who loves her and the charming telekinetic with "bad idea" written all over him won't be easy--especially while trying to survive high school.Evolved Publishing presents the second in a 5-part series, Farsighted, by award-winning author Emlyn Chand. YA / ROMANCE / PARANORMAL / FANTASYSimmi Shergill's life is a mess. Her powers of psychic feeling are on the fritz, and Grandon Township's sudden population boom has brought quite a few unsavory characters to town. She also looks like an over-blown balloon in her size 14 pants, but not even starving herself seems to be helping.At least she has Alex, the boyfriend who loves her so much he'd do anything for her. Last summer, he even risked his life to protect her from the mysterious boy everyone was convinced wanted to kill her.Just one problem: she's not so sure she feels the same way. Is Alex really the man of her dreams? Why can't she stop fixating on her would-be killer, Dax? Part of her wants to run screaming in the other direction whenever Dax is around, while the other part longs to run into his embrace, no matter whom she'd hurt or what she'd risk.Simmi's loyalty is on the line. Whom will she choose--the blind seer who loves her, or the charming telekinetic with "bad idea" written all over him? Emotions run high in the tension-packed book two of the "Farsighted" series.Praise for Farsighted:Winner, Writer's Digest Self-Published Novel Awards, Young Adult Category, 2012Best Multicultural Fiction, Next Generation Indie Book Awards, 2012 Finalist, Eric Hoffer Award, 2012BookBundlz Book Club Pick, 2012Overall Winner, Best Young Adult Fiction, Best Debut Author, Dragonfly eBook Awards, 2011Bronze Medalist, Paranormal Fiction, Readers Favorite, 2012Finalist, Speculative Fiction, Global eBook Awards, 2011Winner of the Alternative Booker Award, 2011Winner of the WritersType First Chapter Competition, September 2011"Chand's characters are compelling and diverse...

Open Heart was very different from Farsighted. Being from a teenage girl’s perspective is something that I usually read anyway, but Farsighted was a lot more paranormal fantasy than Open Heart. I did love this book, but for very different reasons than the first book. Emlyn Chand has amazing talent; ...

This book deals with some pretty heavy issues. Trust and eating disorders being the major ones. It's also told from Simmi's perspective. Simmi seems like a completely different person from Farsighted. A lot of this could be because of how Alex sees her. But she never seemed so distraught before...
