Description
". . . a delightful read with spooky elements, plenty of action, cute romance, and mystery." -Seattle Book Review
Not all dreams are meant to be followed.
Although Jeni has fully accepted her spiritual ability, she's unnerved by the apparition of a pioneer girl asking for help. But as the girl's tragic love story unfolds in her dreams, Jeni's resistance melts and she resolves to save the soul of the ghost's lost love.
Jeni dreams through the eyes of the ghost girl, Marielle, experiencing the ill-fated turn of events firsthand. When she discovers that her own impulses cause Marielle to act uncharacteristically, Jeni believes she can change the past. Despite warnings against meddling with time, Jeni forges ahead, convinced she can use the dreams to find the moment where the soul of Marielle's lover might be saved.
Deep inside a dream and intent on her quest, Jeni is lured into a trap which binds her soul to the ghost girl. If she can escape the evil force that tricked her, she'll still need to figure out how to return to the present. With no allies, no knowledge about crossing through time, and limited 18th century resources, Jeni is terrified by her prospects. Failure will leave her soul trapped in the past, or worse... lost in nowhere.
Lost in Nowhere includes both male and female POVs. Perfect for fans of Rules for Vanishing, House of Night Other World Series and The Haunting of Sunshine Girl Series.
About the Author
After years in the corporate world, Barbara Pietron found herself with a second chance to decide what she wanted to be when she grew up. Her lifetime love of books and the written word returned one answer: writer. Pietrons Book One of the Legacy in Legend series, Thunderstone (Scribe Publishing Company, 2013), was a finalist for Indiefabs 2013 Young Adult Book of the Year by Foreword Reviews, and in 2012 Thunderstone was a quarter-finalist in the Amazon Breakthrough Novel Award contest. As such, Barbara won a full manuscript review from Publishers Weekly, which called Thunderstone -- well-written and entertaining -- adding that Jeni makes for a likeable protagonist that readers will identify with. Pietron also wrote a stand-alone novel, Soulshifter (Scribe Publishing Company, 2015), and a prequel to the Legacy in Legend series, Heart of Ice (e-book only, Scribe Publishing Company, 2014).
