February 2013 eBook of the Month A captivating story from the much-admired pen of Joss Stirling, creator of Finding Sky and Stealing Phoenix. Crystal Brook seems doomed to play second fiddle to her more successful, more popular sister Diamond. However, when she meets the exasperating Xav Benedict she finds they are thrust together on an action-packed mission to save their families, discovering they have more in common than they could ever have believed. This book packs a romantic punch with a paranormal twist.

Dropping out of school with a clutch of 'E' grades and no future, she lives in the shadow of her high-flying sister Diamond. On a trip to Denver, a chance encounter with the dashing Benedict brothers leaves Diamond head over heels in love and engaged to be married.

Spine-tingling romance and nail-biting action ... The Bookseller Children's Buyer's Guide
Joss Stirling studied English at Cambridge and has always been fascinated by the idea that life is more than what we see on the surface. Researching Finding Sky saw her travelling in the characters' footsteps, from the awe-inspiring landscape of the Rockies, down a white-water river on a raft, and to the artificial pleasures of Las Vegas. Stealing Phoenix followed - to widespread acclaim - and her most recent novel, Seeking Crystal, was published in 2012.
