For elite extraterrestrial pilot EBN-Reyoz-X, awaiting rescue while hiding out in a trailer park in Lancaster, California, is a grueling nightmare. She’s injured, lacks proper supplies and can’t blend in with the indigenous population because she’s seven feet tall and can’t control the trail of wildflowers blooming in the wake of her footsteps. She’s unprepared to begin sexual maturity in the alien land and when she develops feelings for Shale, the mute teenage boy next door, she’s convinced circumstances can get no worse.
Except rescue never comes and once word spreads that her touch holds miraculous healing abilities, EBN must find a way to fix her ship, evade capture by the United States Air Force and survive long enough to return home.~From GoodReads

“The crowd surged toward me, anxious to see the reputed miracle-worker. My eyes swept over the sea of bodies. Sents stood in a neat line, three or four deep. I estimated the group exceeded sixty Sents and those were only the ones I could see.”

(Sents are humans)

I am really digging this book and hope to have a review up in a couple of days.
