Description


Love ties them together. Death can't tear them apart.

Best. Birthday. Ever. At least, it was supposed to be. With Logan's band playing a critical gig and Aura's plans for an intimate after-party, Aura knows it will be the most memorable night of her boyfriend's life. She never thought it would be his last.

Logan's sudden death leaves Aura devastated. He's gone.

Well, sort of.

Like everyone born after the Shift, Aura can see and hear ghosts. This mysterious ability has always been annoying, and Aura had wanted nothing more than to figure out why the Shift happened so she can undo it. But not with Logan’s violet-hued spirit still hanging around. Because dead Logan is almost as real as ever. Almost.

It doesn't help that Aura’s new friend Zachary is so understanding—and so very alive. His support means more to Aura than she cares to admit.

As Aura's relationships with the dead and the living grow ever complicated, so do her feelings for Logan and Zachary. Each holds a piece of Aura's heart…and clues to the secret of the Shift.

About the Author


Jeri Smith-Ready has been writing fiction since the night she had her

first double espresso.  A constant stream of caffeine has resulted in

six published novels, including Wicked Game and Eyes of Crow, which

have each won multiple awards in the fields of fantasy and romance.

Jeri will have her teen fiction debut in May 2010 with the Simon Pulse

release of Shade, a paranormal love story featuring a world of spirits

only the young can see.  The sequel, Shift, will follow in 2011.

The next two years will also see the continuation of Jeri’s fun and

sexy WVMP RADIO urban fantasy series from Pocket Books.

Jeri holds a master’s in environmental policy and currently lives in

Maryland with her husband, cat, and the world’s goofiest greyhound.

When not writing, she can usually be found--well, thinking about writing.

Praise for Shade…


"[SHADE IS] a fully satisfying read, with well-developed, believable characters. Smith-Ready changes the world completely by simply changing our ability to see."
