The Ghost Chronicles by @MarloBerliner is a Scary Reads for Halloween pick #paranormal #halloween



Title: THE GHOST CHRONICLES

Author: MARLO BERLINER

Genre: Paranormal

Book Blurb:

Can Michael get to heaven before the devil gets him first, and if it means leaving Sarah is he sure he still wants to go? Michael Andrews had everything - a loving family, a great girlfriend and a promising basketball career. That was before the accident that took his life. Now, he's a ghost, wandering among the living, struggling to understand why he's stuck. All he wants is to move on. That is until he meets Sarah, an attractive young girl who died just as tragically as he did. The only trouble is falling in love and binding oneself to another soul is forbidden, for it may keep one or both of the souls bound to earth for longer than they should be. To make matters worse, there's also a danger in going too far with Sarah, because the "joining" of two souls in the afterlife is also strictly forbidden and they don't know what will happen if they do go that far. Each time they touch they can feel the boundaries of their energies slipping perilously into one another. Things get even more complicated as Michael learns he's being pursued. Demons are after him because he's a marked soul, a soul the devil wants very badly for some unknown reason. So, maybe falling in love in the afterlife isn't such a good idea. *Inspired by the legend of a haunting at the Angel of the Sea in Cape May, NJ. Perfect for fans of Twilight and the 90's movie Ghost*

Excerpt:

Michael and Sarah glided through the door and back out into the hall, while the two janitors continued to argue whether or not to call the cops. This is hilarious. They have no idea we’re only an arm’s length away.

Raising an eyebrow Michael said, “Should we prove it to him?”

“No, we better not.” Sarah giggled. “They’d probably both have heart attacks and drop over.”

“Yeah, you’re right,” he said, feigning disappointment with a pout. Putting an arm around his partner in crime, he walked with her down the hall and away from the two screeching janitors. He turned the corner. They were now alone in another wing of the school. Without even thinking about it, he stopped and hugged both arms around her. As they embraced, an almost magnetic force pulled him towards her and a flow of electricity ever-so-slightly passed between them. Whoa, talk about being attracted to someone.

Enjoying the warmth of her aura, his eyes locked with hers. What would it be like to kiss her? Would it feel the same as when I was alive? Suddenly, he forgot where they were. He forgot they were dead. He forgot about anything other than wanting to kiss a beautiful girl. Slipping his arms down around her waist, he leaned closer.

Sarah’s eyelids fluttered shut and her lips parted expectantly.
