From the blurb:

What would you do if you could see into the future? As a child, he dreamed of being a superhero. Most people never get to realize their childhood dreams, but Corrigan Bain has come close. He is a fixer. His job is to prevent accidents—to see the future and “fix” things before people get hurt. But the ability to see into the future, however limited, isn’t always so simple. Sometimes not everyone can be saved. “Don’t let them know you can see them.” Graduate students from a local university are dying, and former lover and FBI agent Maggie Trent is the only person who believes their deaths aren’t as accidental as they appear. But the truth can only be found in something from Corrigan Bain’s past, and he’s not interested in sharing that past, not even with Maggie. To stop the deaths, Corrigan will have to face up to some old horrors, confront the possibility that he may be going mad, and find a way to stop a killer no one can see. Corrigan Bain is going insane . . . or is he? Because there’s something in the future that doesn’t want to be seen. It isn’t human. It's got a taste for mayhem. And it is very, very angry.

My Only tells the story of Adam and his twin brother Aaron. Both have grown up without a mother, and it's long been Adam's belief that he's the reason for his mother's death. He's somewhat antisocial, a self-proclaimed nerd playing drums in his school's marching band and his friends' garage band, and has lived most of his life in the shadow of his identical twin, who's a complete opposite as a social butterfly and jock. He accepts this fate without question, until Olivia Cartwright moves in next door, to live with her grandparents. Both Adam and his brother are vying for this girl, and she becomes the catalyst for the changes Adam makes in his life and his outlook.
