Ivy Calhoun’s
mother has just married a Scottish laird and now they are moving to his
castle. When she arrives she finds the
castle and the countryside to be spooky and the welcome from her stepfather’s
grandmother’s reception is cold and even hostile. Then Ivy starts hearing voices telling her to
go away, sees things floating, and she is even pushed and choked by an unseen
force. Who or what wants her to
leave? When Ivy meets Logan, a ghost who
hangs around the castle she doesn’t know if he is friend or foe, but as she
gets to know him she starts to fall in love with him. Can Ivy discover the mystery of the castle
before she gets hurt? Can she somehow
change Logan’s destiny so they can be together?
This really
was a fluff book but it was fun.
Scotland is a wonderful, mysterious setting and was the perfect backdrop
for this book. The story reminded me of
the “Outlander” series by Diana Gabaldon but more appropriate for middle
school. There was a good mystery and
some spooky elements so it was ideal for a beach or summer read.
