Review: I never want this couple to ever part. Stacey Kade has written a fabulous novel with witty humor and a couple completely opposite from one another, yet perfect for each other.
Alona Dare had it all. She was the Homecoming Queen, Ms. Popular and had the boyfriend most only dream about. Life was great until she was hit by a school bus. Now she is forced to spend the rest of eternity as a ghost.
Unable to find the "White Light", she walks the halls of the school to hear how everyone truly felt about her. Her perfect boyfriend and best friend apparently aren't so perfect and the rest of the school hates her.
Will Killian is the school outcast who has a very dark secret. He can see, speak and touch ghosts.
He has spent his life trying to avoid the dead and block them out. That all changes once Alona realizes he can see and hear her.
When attacked by other ghosts seeking his help to find closure, Alona comes to his rescue with one condition. He has to help her because not only can't she find the "White Light", she is slowly disappearing.
Can Will save Alona in time before she disappears for ever? Or will he wind up in the crazy house for talking to things that no one else can see but him?
The two make an unlikely pair but soon they find a middle ground. Just the interaction between Will and Alona is enough to have me re-read this book.
I give it two thumbs up. If you are into the supernatural and unrequited love.

Product Description:
All Meg has ever wanted is to get away. Away from high school. Away from her backwater town. Away from her parents who seem determined to keep her imprisoned in their dead-end lives. But one crazy evening involving a dare and forbidden railroad tracks, she goes way too far...and almost doesn't make it back.
John made a choice to stay. To enforce the rules. To serve and protect. He has nothing but contempt for what he sees as childish rebellion, and he wants to teach Meg a lesson she won't soon forget. But Meg pushes him to the limit by questioning everything he learned at the police academy. And when he pushes back, demanding to know why she won't be tied down, they will drive each other to the edge -- and over....
Review:
Going Too Far is a must read. This story is truly unforgettable.
Meg goes too far one night and as punishment is assigned to follow John on night shifts for one week during spring vacation.
Both Meg and John have been effected by tragic events in their past. Each go to very extensive lengths to leave their lives in accordance to how their past has influenced them.
Meg has decided to live her life to the fullest and escape this small town she has lived in her entire life.
John intends to live his life by the law.
Both push the other to see the world from their eyes and by doing so push one another too far. The question is, will their love for one another with stand tests, or will they push each other too far.
This is one love story you won’t want to miss. I find myself reading this book again and again.
Jennifer Echols has written two characters that are full of strength and bravery. You will laugh, cry and find yourself routing for each character as they face each obstacle that they come up against.
