Summary from Goodreads:
Filled with magic, thrilling adventure, and sweet romance,
Elementals is the first in a new series that fans of Percy Jackson and The
Secret Circle will love!
When Nicole Cassidy moves from sunny Georgia to gloomy New
England, the last thing she expects is to learn that her homeroom is a cover
for a secret coven of witches. Even more surprisingly … she’s apparently a
witch herself. Despite doubts about her newfound abilities, Nicole is welcomed
into this ancient circle of witches and is bedazzled by their powers—and, to
her dismay, by Blake—the school’s notorious bad-boy.
Girls who get close to Blake wind up hurt. His girlfriend
Danielle will do anything to keep them away, even if she must resort to using
dark magic. But the chemistry between Blake and Nicole is undeniable, and
despite wanting to protect Nicole from Danielle’s wrath, he finds it impossible
to keep his distance.
When the Olympian Comet shoots through the sky for the first
time in three thousand years, Nicole, Blake, Danielle, and two others in their
homeroom are gifted with mysterious powers. But the comet has another effect—it
opens the portal to the prison world that has contained the Titans for
centuries. After an ancient monster escapes and attacks Nicole and Blake, it’s
up to them and the others to follow the clues from a cryptic prophecy so that
they can save their town … and possibly the world.

"This had to be a
joke. After all, an owl hadn’t dropped a letter down my fireplace to let me
know I’d been accepted into a special school, and I certainly hadn’t taken an
enchanted train to get to Kinsley High."

“I
heard that you and your friends don’t like humans very much,” I began, watching
Blake in the hope that the question wasn’t too personal. “Is that true?”
He kept focused on the road, his jaw
muscles tight. “It’s not that we don’t like them,” he said simply. “But we are more powerful than humans. Is it so
bad to see them as weak?”
“It’s not their fault that they don’t have
powers,” I said. “We’re not any more deserving than they are. We didn’t do
anything special to be like this. It’s just the way we were born.”
“It’s different when you’ve grown up
knowing about what you can do,” he said. “Humans are weak. We’re powerful.
Think of it like … natural selection.”
I looked out the
window, not wanting to hear any more. Because it just reminded me that Blake
only liked me because of my powers. He wouldn’t have noticed me at all if I
were normal.
