SYNOPSIS: Pierce Olivera has never been the same since the day she almost died. Everyone thinks it is because of the stress of her brush with death. Really, it is because she met someone in the afterlife who won't let her go. When she moves to her mom's hometown to try to get a new start, she realizes she can't run away from her problems. They follow her wherever she goes.
AUNT SHARON'S TAKE: I have read enough Meg Cabot to know what to expect. The writing's not the best, and there's usually some crude jokes thrown in. Sometimes, however, you take what is available. This book was a little darker and more exciting that other Cabot books I've read. There still were some sexual references and offensive language, however, as well as some strong sensuality in the second book. There was also some dark imagery. I would only recommend it to older readers, for those reasons.
