Selling Visitors Series.
“When I first moved here I was
still a girl who cherished the normality of teen life. Now, after being here a
year I had come to love a boy who was both strong and courageous. I made real
friendships that would last even after death. The selfish girl my grandmother
warned me of becoming had vanished. A girl who stood tall, with the powers to
see the dead and help those in need, appeared in her place.”
In Brylee’s world, nothing is
normal. She sees and speaks with the dead and, at seventeen years old, she
already has a full plate. She’s in her senior year of high school and college
is just around the corner, but only if she learns to control her gifts and
survive in the land of the living.
She has succeeded in ridding her
boyfriend, Ephraim, from the Brown family curse, but, in the end, her best
friend loses her life. Now a whole slew of new problems present itself and,
like always, Brylee is tempted to run for the hills. With Ephraim at her side,
she must come to grips with the reality that she is not an average girl and she
never will be.
What will happen when the town
turns on her? Or, better yet, when a body is unearthed in her backyard? The
choices that Brylee must make will determine whether she has a future or
nothing at all.

“Branson!” Miss Hailey shouted at
me from the front of the room while tapping her black ballet flats harshly
against the floor. I hadn’t listened to a thing she had said, of course, so I
just smiled at her.
“Yes Miss?” I said in the sweetest,
most innocent voice.
“Why are you in my class if you’re
not going to pay attention?”
Whoa! Ephraim was totally right
about her being strict. “I love this class Miss. I was just worried about the
storm is all. I have never experienced anything like this before,” I lied.
“Well,” she sighed. “I will forgive
that. No one likes hurricanes, but they don’t stop the learning process.”
“Unless the hurricane kills you.” I
looked up to see Kayla sitting on top of the teacher’s desk. I fought back the
urge to laugh when she walked towards me. I sure hoped she wouldn’t mess with
me now. She sat in the empty seat next to me and tapped her fingers on the
desk.
“I always hated her, did you know
that?”
I shook my head. How did she expect
me to communicate with her in public?
“I’m here to talk to you about
something important. Can you give me five minutes?”
I raised my hand to excuse myself
to the bathroom and Miss Hailey obliged. I sped walked to the girl’s room as
Kayla skipped behind me. I pushed open a stall and threw my hands up in the
air. “What the heck Kayla? Here, at school?”
She laughed.
“Seriously? I know something’s up,
but why not wait until after school?”
She leaned against the stall and
sighed. “I told you things are weird with me lately. I don’t know what’s
happening but I can feel a change coming. I… I…” Her mad rush to speak was
suddenly interrupted by a choking sound coming from her mouth.
“Kayla!” I rushed to her and my
hands went through her body. She wasn’t solid like normal. Something was wrong!
Kayla had always felt like flesh and blood to me. Never like a ghost.
Suddenly her mouth opened and water
poured out onto my feet, splashing my shoes and legs. I still tried but failed
to help her. She was choking on water and, if I wasn’t mistaken, she was
drowning. I was helpless and didn’t know what to do. Then before I could come
up with an answer she uttered one word, “Diary.”
“Diary? Okay, where?” Any clue
besides diary would have been perfect, but I was helpless now because she
suddenly vanished.
I received
an e-ARC copy of this book, for a blog tour, in return for an honest review.
