This was a fun, quick read that is classic young adult fare. A paranormal love triangle that has a nice edge of frightening moments.It is a quick paced book, which is a nice change from some of the more long-winded ones out there. Becca, the protagonist, is pleasant to read about, and we do get to see her mature a bit as the book progresses, which is always a plus. The idea of making Alastor a ghost, someone she can't really touch, was nicely chosen. It creates a number of interesting, romantic moments. He is a bit too domineering for my taste, but I guess since he is supposed to be from the Civil War era, that's to be expected.One thing that did bug me a bit was the Jonah's description. His perfection was a bit overstated, to the point where it got repetitive, especially at the beginning. As the book progresses, this does improve, however.If you're looking for a fun read, this one is definitely a good choice. I'll be looking forward to the next book in the series.
