The Haunted Review by Samantha Stroy

    " The Haunted" by Jessica Verday
Book Two in The Hollow Triliogly

  The back of the book says:

  After months spent reclaiming her sanity and trying to forget the boy she fell in love with------- the boy who must not exist, cannot exist, because she knows he'd dead_____ Abbey returns to Sleepy Hollow, ready to leave her ghosts of her past behind. She throws herself into her school-work, her perfume making, and her friendship with Ben, her cute and  funny lab partner, who just might be her ticket to getting over Caspian once and for all.
  But, Abbey can never get over Caspian, and Caspian has no choice to return to her side, for Caspian is a Shade, and Abbey is his destiny. They are tied not only to each other , but also to the town of Sleepy Hollow and the famous legend that binds their fates----- a legend whose dark truths they are only the beginnning to guess....

My review-

    The second novel to " The Hollow Trilogy," was just as good as " The Hollow" in my opinion. Another page turner that kept wanting more.
In this novel, we fine out who Nikolas and Katy are, what happened to Kristen and who killed her, along, with why Abbey and Caspian can't stand to be away from each other.

One word to describe " The Haunted," is Amazing!
To me each chapter kept me in suspense and I just was dying to read more. As much as I want to tell you what happened to Kristen, I won't. Only because I don't want to let it spoil it for you. Let that be the reason for reading the book.

It starts off with Abbey returning to Sleepy Hollow., and she has to give a speech about kristen at the new bridge ceremony.
The, Abbey slowly makes her way to the cemetary many times in search for answers. At first, she was confused but simply got over the feeling
I found myself literally laughing out loud in many parts of the book because Caspian is trying to be a cute, wise-guy, jealoys and loving guy her is, couldn't stand Abbey gettingf help from Ben for her science class.
So, because no one but Abbey ( that's human) can hear or see Caspian, he made some really funny comments. I couldn't help but laugh.

For all the hopeless romantics such as myself, we find out how it feels to love someone and feel complete in our hearts after reading this.
A lot of Caspian's personality reminds me of my husband and how he won my heart over fourteen years ago.
Overall, this novel is Amazing. I look forward to the last novel in this trilogy " The Hidden" which comes out September 2011. We will then hopefully find out more about Abbey and Caspian's love for each other and I honestly can't wait.

 For all those of you who believe in Soulmates, and eternal love and devotion can complete you, then you have to read this trilogy.
I haven't read a good series since I finished " The Twilight Saga," by Stephanie Meyer and I fell in love with all the cheesy romance and pick-up lines.
In conclusion, if you love the paranormal romance or think it isn't real, in my heart it is quite possible to find your soulmate.
This book will find you happy, sad, laughing out loud, smiling, at the edge of your seat, blushing and teary eyes all at once.

Thank you to Jessica Verday for being a great writer and answering some of my questions via Facebook that I have asked since I read " The Hollow" almost two years ago.

For Eternal Love and Devotion,
Happy Reading!
