A KISS FOR EMILY is a thrilling YA paranormal romance, where discovering the paranormal is exciting for the reader, but life-threatening for Emily Stokes, the 17-yr. old high school student from Kansas.
My Review:
So the synopsis that I got from Goodreads isn't the one that made me want to read this book. Because that one was compelling, and interested, and had a lot more detail, it wasn't 2 1/2 short lines of what's more of a quick description, then a synopsis. I should've used the one that hooked me!
Because while the above does describe the book, it doesn't really, truly do the book justice, because there was a lot more to it then that, that's just the bare bones. The meat of the story, yeah, was much, much juicier, to continue the analogy!
Like, say, it doesn't say how it's a paranormal book. I can get the romance, because there was Alex, the boy from home that she had feelings for, but never had a chance to act on them, and then Sam, the guy that she's met at the new place. But the paranormal stuff, well, see below.
Because this is a series. This story didn't finish with this book. There's still more to come, and yeah, with that, comes a lot of elements, from the mystery that was a lot of this book, probably will be shifted a bit, since this book happened!
I enjoyed this book quite a bit, it was a really great book to read!

J P began writing her first novel back in 2009 after a work related injury took her out of the job market. Foreign to writing literature, her rough draft read more like torture than paranormal. Although the plot had been solid, not until she joined a local writer's group did the book really begin to blossom.
She currently enjoys a successful writing career and was recently featured as the April 2012 Author of the Month in the Paranormal Romance Guild.
