About this ebook

Torn from her native New York City and dumped in the land of cookie-cutter preps, Candice is resigned to her posh, dull fate. Nothing ever happens in Swoon, Connecticut . . . until Dice’s perfect, privileged cousin Penelope nearly dies in a fall from an old tree and her spirit intertwines with that of a ghost. His name? Sinclair Youngblood Powers. His mission?Revenge. And while Pen is oblivious to the possession, Dice is all too aware of Sin. She’s intensely drawn to him— but not at all crazy about the havoc he’s wreaking. Determined to exorcise the demon, Dice accidentally sets Sin loose, gives him flesh, makes him formidable. Now she must destroy an even more potent—and irresistible— adversary before the whole town succumbs to Sin’s will. Only trouble is, she’s in love with him.

Ratings and reviews

I hated the ending. Throughout the whole book there were details but once it got to the end it just dropped off. It just didn't even make sense. Ridiculous! Also, it wasn't as romantic as the back cover made it sound like it would be.

I loved this book very much, it was a refreshing change to the same old fads of late that had me in a bookless slump. Many say this book got confusing and jumped around too much but, I had no problem following it.
