Third in the HAWAIIAN SHADOWS series by USA-Today bestselling author Edie Claire! Sometimes being together feels electrifying. Sometimes it actually is. Seventeen-year-old Kali has spent an idyllic few months on Oahu, becoming ever closer to Zane as they enjoy the tropical sun on the beaches of the world-famous North Shore. But as their summer vacations draw to a close, Kali can’t help but feel a twinge of concern. Nothing between the two teenagers has ever been simple, but the deeper in love she falls, the more intense her connection with the shadows -- and other things she’d rather not connect with -- seems to become. And as excited as she is about the prospect of Zane’s returning her love, their bizarre relationship seems to be having “effects” on him as well -- effects that are more than a little disturbing. A frustrated Kali feels as if she and Zane might be in perfect Lokahi, or harmony, if only they could be “normal.” But is that even an option? When an innocent mix-up at the Honolulu airport results in their crossing paths with fate at its darkest, Kali and Zane must decide whether to play it safe… or embrace the power of the unknown. Reviews of Wraith from the bloggers: "WOW! Is all I can say... I loved every minute of it. It has to be one of the best YA paranormal reads I have read to date. This book is filled with heart and soul... I don’t think I have actually cried over a book since I was in the 7th grade and read Where the Red Fern Grows... Really Edie... I’m begging, write more Zane and Kali!"-- Melissa Hardy, Smardy Pants Book Blog "This book is so incredibly awesome!! I loved absolutely every minute that I spent reading this!! It was a book that kept me up long into the early hours of the morning...I simply couldn't put it down!!...I loved Kali and Zane. Kali's spunk and Zane's enthusiasm, sense of humour and energy were infectious!!...Without a doubt a massive 5/5."-- Young Adult Book Addict "Despite my inclination to listen to stories intended for a more mature audience, I found myself lost and totally engrossed in Kali and Zane’s story. I listened to this audiobook straight through enjoying every minute of it. Wraith is the impressive first book in the YA series Hawaiian Shadows... The writing style is very vivid -- the author not only puts you there emotionally, but also physically in a way that makes you feel the warm ocean breeze of a Hawaiian spring... A fantastic YA listen." -- Loupe Duffy, Hot Listens [From the audio version, narrated by the award-winning Tavia Gilbert]
