Walking in Between L.b. Montas

Fourteen-year-old Elisabeth Grace is so stricken with the curse of beauty that she attracts everyone she meets. Her family calls it, ?sangre dulce?, or sweet blood. But is it possible her curse is actually a gift? In the story she realizes the greater reason for it; her sweet blood is not limited to this realm. During a summer spent at a historic inn near Williamsburg, Va., she discovers that she is a clairvoyant. She develops a powerful bond with an older boy, Carter, who has been dead for over two hundred years. He is instantly smitten with her but she is reluctant. It takes her time, distance, and emotionally charged predicaments for her to accept her true feelings for him. At her tender age, denial is bliss. The fact that Carter isn?t the only ghost attracted to her is something Elisabeth tries to ignore. But can she? Teenage angst is alive and well in historic Virginia! The fact that it is between a girl and a ghost is barely an afterthought.
