Fans of the Twilight series will enjoy The Hourglass Door (Shadow Mountain Publishing, $18.95).
In this first book of a trilogy, the life of a typical teenage girl (Abby) with a picture perfect life is turned upside down when a mysterious foreign exchange student from Italy moves to town. Dante Alexander is provocative, interesting, and unlike anyone she’s ever met before.
Abby is drawn to him, despite the unusual things that seem to happen when Dante is around. Time behaves differently when they are together—traveling too fast or too slow or sometimes seeming to stop altogether. Soon Abby finds herself in the middle of a mystery whose roots reach into sixteenth-century Italy, and she uncovers a dangerous truth that threatens not only her future but the lives of those she loves.
