Spirit and Dust

An electric paranormal mystery from the author of The Splendour Falls.

I am such a fan of Rosemary Clement-Moore! Spirit and Dust (like Texas Gothic and The Splendor Falls) is a perfect mix of paranormal mystery and romance.

You can’t really beat a story that has hijinks, romance, and a culminating scene in which the heroine defeats the bad guys by animating the bones of Sue the T-rex, can you?

Speaking to the dead is nothing for Daisy Goodnight. The living, on the other hand, can occasionally be a problem. Especially when they knock you out and kidnap you. 
 
Willing or not, Daisy finds herself on a high-speed mission to track down a mob boss's precious daughter, but she's running out of time. 
 
The dead are coming to take over.

The Splendour Falls

Sophie's character is marvellous - despite her hardships she remains likeable, determined and feisty. However, the family home in Alabama is almost a character in it's own right with its history and ghostly happenings. . . . Bang on trend for the current teenage market . . . Perfect

What can I say other than WOW? The Splendour Falls is a hauntingly, beautiful, love story with a twist!

Rosemary Clement-Moore lives and writes in Arlington, Texas. THE SPLENDOR FALLS is the fourth book she has had published in the US for young readers.

Sylvie Davies is a ballerina who can't dance. A broken leg ended her career, but what broke her heart was her father's death, and what's breaking her spirit is her mother's remarriage. Still reeling Sylvie is shipped off to stay with relatives in the back of beyond. Or so she thinks, in fact she ends up in a town rich with her family's history . . . and as it turns out her family has a lot more history than Sylvie ever knew. More unnerving, though, are the two guys she can't stop thinking about. Shawn Maddox, the resident golden boy, is the expected choice. But handsome and mysterious Rhys has a hold on her that she doesn't quite understand 
 
Then Sylvie starts seeing things - a girl by the lake and a man with dark unseeing eyes peering in through the window . . . Sylvie's lost nearly everything - is she starting to lose her mind as well?

Texas Gothic is really fantastic read . . . This is definitely going on my re-read pile though and I'll be keeping my fingers crossed for a sequel. I'd recommend this to any YA paranormal fan who likes smart heroines, a good mystery and a hero to swoon over

Perfect for a teenager looking for a read, this gripping gothic tale is a winner

A spooky, electrifying love story. 
 
Amy Goodnight's family are far from normal. She comes from a long line of witches, and grew up surrounded by benevolent spirits and kitchen spells. All fairly harmless, but Amy can't wait to get to college and escape the "family business". 
 
But things take a darker turn when she and her sister Phin spend the summer looking after Aunt Hyacinth's ranch. Amy is visited by a midnight spectre who is clearly trying to send her a message. It seems that the discovery of an old grave on a neighbour's land has been the catalyst for an apparent ghost uprising. 
 
Aided by local friends and Ben, the handsome cowboy who just can't take his eyes off Amy, the sisters investigate. And they soon find that there's something strange and dangerous going on, deep in the heart of Texas...
