When Becca McAllister moves to her new home in Coydon, Indiana, her new friends talk her into having a séance.  She doesn't realize how life changing this will be. They contacted the spirit of Alastor Sinclair. Alastor recognizes Becca. He knew her as Becca in her former life - Becca Sinclair!  Alastor keeps watching and visiting her and they both begin the rekindle old feelings.When gorgeous Jonah, the school hottie, starts to smile Becca's way, it only adds Becca's confusion and flames Alastor's jealousy.  How does a girl choose between a new flesh and blood romance and a undying love in spirit only?Before I write anything else, I have to apologize to Ms. Burnett.  I am guilty of being judgmental.  When I was asked to review this self-published story, it sounded interesting, but since it was self-published (and of the Young Adult category), I expected it to be of lesser quality than some of the paperbacks I have received from the major publishing houses.  I have read some of the "free" books offered at B&N; and Amazon and although those stories were okay, there was always something lacking in the story, characters and/or dialogue which I felt explained why it was free.In this case, I was soooo wrong!The characters in is this book were well written, the story drew me in immediately, and I have to admit a bit of frustration on my part since I was not aware this was Book #1.  When I hit the last page, I did a little screaming and I ran to the computer to see if I could find out when Book #2 was coming out.The feelings which come through between Becca and Alastor have me racking my brain trying to figure out how to make a ghost whole again.  They were wonderful together.  Jonas is nice and all, but so far I'm an Alastor girl.I would say the only character lacking in this book is the Dad.  He spends more time and attention on knick-knacks for the house and none concerned that his teenaged daughter spends all of her time alone in her room and often ignores her friends.  If, unlike the reader, you are not aware that she is spending all her time with her ghost boyfriend, she  would come off as a troubled, possibly suicidal teen.  Way to pay attention Dad!At a cost of only $.99, it is well worth the investment.
