Paranormal

LIVING VIOLET is a fun and invigorating new paranormal book from author Jaime Reed. It tells the story of a teenage girl named Sam who works at a bookstore where mysterious things have begun to happen! Her co-worker, Caleb, is strangely alluring and she finds herself inexplicably drawn to his tempting violet-colored eyes. But could he be dangerous? All signs point to yes. Every girl he is seen with happens to become victim to all kinds of unfortunate events. But Sam just can't stay away...

With lovely prose and a quick pace, the author takes us through a new and inventive paranormal world. Sam's perspective is witty, exciting, and compulsively page- turning. Every character stands on their own with Reed's rich character development. Priceless comedy flows from the pages, leaving tons of laughs to be discovered. The world- building is easy to follow and the storyline is expertly crafted.

LIVING VIOLET is recommended for those who'd love to read a funny and more insidious version of recent YA paranormal books. If you love to laugh and discover new mythologies, than this might be the book you've been looking for!

SUMMARY

Book 1 of The Cambion Chronicles

He's persuasive, charming, and way too mysterious. And for Samara Marshall, her co-worker is everything she wants most--and everything she most fears. . .

Samara Marshall is determined to make the summer before her senior year the best ever. Her plan: enjoy downtime with friends and work to save up cash for her dream car. Summer romance is not on her to-do list, but uncovering the truth about her flirtatious co-worker, Caleb Baker, is. From the peculiar glow to his eyes to the unfortunate events that befall the girls who pine after him, Samara is the only one to sense danger behind his smile.

But Caleb's secrets are drawing Samara into a world where the laws of attraction are a means of survival. And as a sinister power closes in on those she loves, Samara must take a risk that will change her life forever. . .or consume it.
