Book Description
This complete series edition includes Haunting Joy Books 1 & 2, and Chain Reaction, a short story. Book 1 The ghost of Beth sweeps seventeen-year-old Joy into an extraordinary journey to complete some unfinished business...and challenges her to make some dangerous choices. Like calling Joy's high-school crush, Nick, for help. A soft, sliding kind of sigh wakes me up. It's hardly a noise at all. I blink to clear my sticky, early-morning vision. I know I heard a sound, an almost human-sounding sigh, coming from the corner of my room. As I slide my gaze that way, a chill slithers over me. My room feels creepy and strange. I peer into the corner and the white dress is no longer heaped in a haphazard pile on my armchair. It's laid out nice and neat, with the straps up over the back cushion and the skirt spread over the seat. The flip-flops are sitting side by side in front of the chair, toes pointed toward me. Like there's an empty girl, in an empty dress, looking right at me. Book 2 I step out of the shower into my steamy bathroom. Then I see it. I whip a towel around me so fast I almost wipe out on the tile floor. Because apparently I'm being haunted again... By a boy who scrawled KYLE across my bathroom mirror with his ghostly finger. Joy's new ghost, Kyle, crashes into her life, disrupting her senior year...and complicating her relationship with Nick. Which is already complicated enough. Haunting Joy: The Complete Series is part slightly spooky ghost story, part sweet romance wrapped in one. For teens and young adults. Reviews "A sweet and charming ghost story that completely won me over." (Lena Coakley, Witchlanders) "A sweet, creative, mystical journey..." (Marley Gibson, bestselling author of the Ghost Huntress series) "Haunting Joy is an enchanting story of a young girl, a haunted thrift store dress, and a journey of discovery. Joy is immediately drawn to a white dress she finds in a sack of thrift stores finds given to her by her grandmother. Intrigued by the connection she feels to the dress, she sets out to find out more about the previous owner. Not only does Joy find out more about the dress and its owner, she also makes some interesting discoveries about herself. I enjoyed this YA Light Paranormal story!"
