"Mi fissava con quei suoi occhi verdi come smeraldi, con uno sguardo tanto allegro quanto inquietante" c'era scritto su una pagina di quel libro aperto sulla scrivania... Tanto allegro quanto inquietante è il suo sguardo... Quel libro era li da tanto tempo mi raccontava la polvere tra la ricucitura della copertina. Decisi di riprendere la penna e di continuare a scrivere la storia, la mia esperienza. È sempre stato difficile per me decidere di continuare a scrivere. "Nessuno capirebbe" ho sempre pensato. D'altronde è così! Come si puó spiegare una storia dove non c'è il bene come protagonista che combatte il male, nè il male che combatte il bene, ma entrambi uniti, bene e male, che combattono contro... Cosa? <PREMETTO CHE I PRIMI DUE CAPITOLI SONO DI "ORIGINE", OVVERO RACCONTO UNA LEGGENDA, SI POSSONO OMETTERE MA SERVONO PER CAPIRE, LA STORIA VERA E PROPRIA INIZIA NEL 3^> (Riferimenti a cose o fatti reali sono PURAMENTE CASUALI! Con queste storie non voglio offende né urtare nessuno)

Ghosts are in the house! With her parents away, seventeen-year-old Alyssa Dempsey is taking care of her two younger brothers for the weekend. On their first morning alone, Alyssa discovers that her baby brother Sean received a magical, glass wand from a pair of ghosts, who he calls the Buddies. Along with their thirteen-year-old brother Bradley, the three Dempsey children begin interacting with a dark and dangerous spirit-world, in which the sinister owner of the wand lives, and from whom it was stolen. "The Essence (A Ghost Story in Three Days) is a fun and quick read that will entertain young adults and their young-at-heart parents. Author Vel Grande brings his characters to life with dialog and humor and paints both dark and light imagery with deft strokes. Krystle Carkeek's plentiful illustrations capture the emotion of the scenes, cementing each character's details in the reader's mind. The Essence is great escapism." -Gary W. Stout, Readers' Favorite (5-Star Selection) "The narration feels authentic, the characters are likable and loathsome in the right doses, and unlike many other modern young adult books, the charming uses of foreshadowing and suspense are reminiscent of traditional ghost stories, not ultra-violent animes or comic books . . . Vel Grande has succeeded in both building a memorable plot with engaging characters and, more importantly, making me want to know what happens next." - Bruce Duboff, Middler Books and More

There are two things Harper Lynch wasn't expecting when she made out with an attractive stranger at her aunt's wedding. One: He would show up on her doorstep two weeks later as the son of an old family friend. Two: That he would be staying in her house, right next door to her. If living together isn't enough, Duke starts to go to Harper's school for the year, and immediately earns the status of the senior heartthrob. Suddenly, Harper, the girl who keeps mostly to herself and spends a lot of time in her room watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer marathons, is the envy of every girl in her high school. Harper couldn't care less, and despite that fact that she has insisted that she has in no interest in Duke, she is still subject to the wrath of jealous, catty bitches and the admiration of wide-eyed freshmen. It really doesn't help that Duke is constantly flirting with her in his own irritating yet charming way. Harper refuses to be yet another conquest, but is that what Duke wants? Or does he want more?
