Spectral Summary

Convinced she’s a part of the witness protection program, sixteen-year-old Jewel Rose is shuffled around the globe with her family like a pack of traveling gypsies. After arriving at lucky home twenty-seven, she stumbles upon a mysterious boy with magical powers claiming to be her guardian . . . and warning of imminent danger. Despite the obvious sparks between them, Jewel discovers a relationship is forbidden, and the more she learns about dark, brooding Roman, she begins to question who she can even believe — the family who raised her, or the supposed sworn protector who claims they’ve been lying to her all along.

As she struggles to uncover who her family has really been running from, she is forced to hide her birthmark that reveals who she is. With new realities surfacing, unexplained powers appearing, and two tempting boys vying for her heart, Jewel battles to learn who she can trust in an ever growing sea of lies, hoping she’ll make it through her seventeenth birthday alive.

My take on SPECTRAL

Well, I just loved the cover.  It is hauntingly beautiful.

The characters left a bit to be desired.  Couldn't relate to any of them.

The plot, however, was just amazing, and more than made up for the lack of personality with the characters.

Shannon Duffy has a unique writing style.  Even without any great love for the main characters, I was able to enjoy this book.  I'm looking forward to more by Shannon.

3.5/5 stars
