The Haunted (The Hollow, #2)

Abbey spends a summer trying to recover her sanity and forget Caspian, the boy she fell in love with. She knows he is dead, so he should not exist. When the season ends she goes back to Sleepy Hollow, determined to leave the ghosts of her past behind.

Back at school, she buries herself in her classes and her perfume-making. She also leans on her friendship with Ben, her cute and funny lab partner, who might be the person who helps her get over Caspian for good.

It does not work. Caspian is a Shade, and Abbey is his destiny, so he has no choice but to return to her. The two are bound to each other and to the town itself, and a famous legend ties their fates together. Its darker truths are only starting to come clear to them.

This is the second book in The Hollow series, a paranormal young adult romance with a love triangle forming around Abbey, Caspian and Ben. It is set in the Sleepy Hollow of legend, and the mood leans toward the haunted and the romantic, with a mystery about the legend running underneath.
