BLOG TOUR STOP #8 – TERI POLEN

I am happy to sail off to Kentucky today to spend some time at Teri Polen’s place. Come along and let’s wrap up this tour!!

Teri hosts a monumental month long blogging event every October with her Bad Moon Rising. How she does it, I don’t know, but I love following along and have discovered new authors through that event. I highly recommend you keep an eye out for it this coming October.

Here is one of my favorites.

MY REVIEW:

The only thing better than a good ghost story is three teenage brothers who have the responsibility of saving their family from an ancient curse.
I love that the author began the story with a scene from the 1700s. Of course, I wondered how that would play into the theme, but it fit perfectly.
The Teller family have finally caught a break when they inherit a house from a distant relative. They’ve struggled to make ends meet and moved from place to place until now. The house is in a gorgeous setting in a small town on the Atlantic Ocean.
The boys soon discover their family is not alone in the house. The POV is from the middle brother, Beck, who is the most level-headed of the three. He loves books and reading and I cheered for him when he got a job in a book store. Perfect for a bookworm.
Gib, the older brother, is often growly and in a bad mood, but this author found the perfect cure for him in Aiden who became his partner. Lex, the youngest, is the family clown and never takes anything seriously. But the one thing they are all passionate about is their little sister, Harper, who is only six. They would do anything for her. So, as they discover the ghosts living in the house with them, their priority is to protect Harper. When Beck finds a hidden room with all sorts of paranormal equipment, they realize their ancestors were more than furniture builders. The over-arching theme of the story is that the three brother have to band together to eliminate the threat. That single mindedness brought them all closer on a united front. I won’t tell you what happened, but I read this book in two sittings and hated to see it end. My heart was in my throat part of the time and I held my breath hoping the brothers would be successful in saving their family. Fantastic story! It’s well-written, fast-paced and held my attention. I highly recommend it!
