Need by Carrie Jones is a fantasy story that any Twilight lover will enjoy. It's about a teenage girl named Zara who moves to Maine to live with her grandmother after her stepfather dies. Her new home is different, always covered in snow and cold, with a small school. Suffering from depression of her stepfather's death and feeling abandoned by her mother, she tries to cope with the new.

She meets Isabel, Devyn, Nick, and Ian. Isabel is a sweet girl who's almost always happy, and becomes Zara's instant friend. Devyn is in a wheelchair, and Zara is instantly attracted to his best friend Nick. Ian seems to be on the other end, not liking any of these people Zara befriends, and vice versa. It's probably just some regular high school rivalry, right?

When Zara sees this guy stalking her, leaving a trail of gold dust, she tells her new friends about him. Devyn checks an Internet site and believes that this stalker is a pixie, and that he's dangerous. Zara soon discovers that her new home is anything but ordinary, and her life is at stake.
