From the best-selling author of Blue is for Nightmares comes a story of paranormal romance that's sure to be a thrilling and chilling teen favorite.
Some secrets shouldn't be kept...
Up until three months ago, everything in sixteen-year-old Camelia's life had been fairly ordinary, decent grades, an okay
relationship with her parents and a pretty cool part-time job at the art studio downtown.
But when Ben, the mysterious new guy, starts junior year at her high school, Camelia's life becomes anything but ordinary.
Rumored to be somehow responsible for his ex-girlfriend's accidental death, Ben is immediately ostracized by everyone on campus.
Except for Camelia...
She's reluctant to believe the rumors, even when her friends try to convince her otherwise.
She's inexplicably drawn to Ben...and to his touch.
But soon, Camelia is receiving eerie phone calls and strange packages with threatening notes.
Ben insists she is in danger, and that he can help--but can he be trusted?
She knows he's hiding something... but he's not the only one with a secret.”
“It was so exciting!”

It was suspenful, thrilling, and intriguing all in one book. From the cover you get the impression of ghost, mystery, and a combination between paranormal and romantic. Which, is all this book is about. I am so happy I read it!
One gloomy day as Camelia walked, something unexpected happened, she almost got run over by a car, a mysterious guy reached out and saved her life. She felt his touch and it thrilled he she felt it all over her body, even though he was only touching one part of her body. Before Camelia gets to thank him for saving her life the mysterious guy disappears. Three months later, the mystery guy, Ben, is enrolled in her school. Rumors say he pushed his girlfriend down a cliff after strangling her. Camelia shuts her self from believing any of the rumors and believes, he's a good guy, the guy that saved her life. Ben denies ever saving her life, and claims, he is being mistaken for someone else. Strange things happen to Camelia, she is being stalked. Phone calls, mysterious gifts, and letters, she is receiving. Who could it be? Ben says she's in danger? Where will Camelia end up and unravel the secret?
This paranormal romance thriller will have you trying to solve the mystery for hours. It had interesting ingredients of mystery, romance, and action, to complement the thrilling plot. Everytime I thought I'd solved the mystery, Stolarz would put something I didn't see coming. From the beginning the suspense goes on and on. The hook is immediately on the first page. It made me never get enough of it. At some point it did slow down, but it always thrilled me to see what was going to happen next. The light writing had me engaged into the book, although I would have liked it to be more descriptive. There wasn't much character development, it didn't really bother me. I found the plot very original, most importantly "the touch". Hot, mysterious, and sexy Ben was my favorite character. He gave the book and air of sensuality, and danger.
At the end of the book, it had me exhausted on trying to follow the story and the many twist and turns. But, I found it fascinating. Stolarz definitely has a gift for story telling. I look forward to reading the sequel in the near future for more- action, thrill, and romance.”
“The characters in this book were all likable, especially Camelia's friends Kimmie and Wes. They're so hilarious! The book kept me guessing who Camelia's stalker was. I was pretty convinced it was her kinda-creepy boss, Spencer and actually thought how much obvious the whole thing was. But Stolarz proved me wrong! I was surprised when the stalker turned out to be Matt, her best friend -- the creep! The tense scenes when Camelia felt she was being watched/stalked and when Matt kept her tied up inside the trailer kept me on the edge of my seat. I just wished Stolarz kept them longer. The book was a measly 272 pages! Easy reading!”

I actually bought the second book first so i had to go back and buy this one before I could read the second one. It was so much like twilight I enjoyed very much. From twilight to evernight and deadly little secrets. Edward, Lucas and Ben have one thing in common they are so great and they leave u in the end ”

Ben just started school and there are rumors all over that he killed his girlfriend but Camilia does not beleive it, until their relationship turns weird.”
