Token of Darkness

by Amelia Atwater-Rhodes

     

Cooper Blake had it all—good looks, a certain future in football, and popularity. Then a car accident left his body broken. He doesn't know how to reconnect to those who care about him and he's not sure he wants to. One thing he does know is that he wants to help Samantha, the girl who stayed by his side throughout his recovery. What does Samantha need? A body. Although Samantha is totally real for Cooper, no one else can see her, and she has no memories except those of her time since the accident.

Can two shattered creatures help each other—are they both as innocent as they seem? This paranormal fantasy novel has a surprising number of twists and turns, keeping the reader wondering just who Cooper should trust. As each new character enters the picture, a new set of problems fall into Cooper's lap, which gives the novel its compellingly fast pace. Plus the novel's slim size will make it a tasty reading snack for any lover of the paranormal.
