Rating: 2 / 5
Synopsis: Cooper Blake has everything going for him—until he wakes from a car accident with his football career in ruins and a mysterious, attractive girl by his side. Cooper doesn’t know how Samantha got there or why he can see her; all he knows is that she’s a ghost, and the shadows that surround her seem intent on destroying her.
No one from Cooper’s old life would understand what he can barely grasp himself. . . . But Delilah, the captain of the cheerleading squad, has secrets of her own, like her ability to see beyond the physical world, and her tangled history with Brent, a loner from a neighboring school who can hear strangers’ most intimate thoughts. Delilah and Brent know that Cooper is in more trouble than he realizes, and that Samantha may not be as innocent as she has led Cooper to believe. But the only way to figure out where Samantha came from will put them all in more danger than they ever dreamed possible.

My review:
Cooper can see ghosts, well one ghost. Samantha. He first saw her at his hospital bedside after his accident. Which involved an eight car pile up. No one else can see her. Cooper is trying to find out more about Samantha. He leaves school to eat lunch and runs into a cheerleader named Delilah. Who could have possibly seen Samantha. Cooper goes to the library to find out about ghosts. He meets a guy named Brent.
I think I'm alot like Brent because he said if he could he would live in a library. I would too. My town library is like my second home. If the world ended that's where I would be. What did Cooper do to Brent? He threw him against the wall but Brent's body never moved. Brent can read minds. He's a telepath. He could also see and hear Samantha.
I think it would be cool to be a telepathy. But I would only want that if I can choose who I listen to. Also I think it would be cool to have a ghost friend.
Brent helps Samantha and Cooper out by taking him to a sorcerer named Ryan. While they are there Cooper sees Delilah who is a witch.
Ryan wants to find out more about Cooper. What Cooper did to Brent he did to Ryan. But it didn't effect him.
Delilah is talking to Samantha. Samantha can't get inside the house because of a shield. Delilah offers to help Samantha get rid of the shadows. But only for Delilah's own gain.
Cooper met up with one of his friends. While Delilah was working with Samantha. Delilah found out that Samantha has the elemental power of water. Which is the rarest and most powerful. Brent was going to pick Cooper up to meet with Ryan the next day. Brent shows up early soaking wet. Cooper gets a call that Delilah is in the hospital.
I would hate to wake up and find that I'm in someone else's body and someone was in mine. I would freak out. Delilah had found out that Samantha is in her body and she is in Margaret's body.
I would also hate to wake up and be in a guy's body.
Delilah got her body back. But Samantha got Brent' s body and Brent got Margaret's.
They found out who Samntha really was.
This book was okay. I wasn't really onto it. It's a good story just not interesting to me.
