Alien Gothic - E-book - ePub

A YA sci-fi mystery with romance, for fans of Riverdale, Roswell, and the Lux series. Celeste Lowe is no stranger to the strange. Living in tiny Pearl Falls, Oregon-infamous for PUFO Con, its annual UFO and sci-fi convention-it's hard not to be. Plus, Celeste is rather strange herself: She can move objects without touching them. Mostly, she avoids using her unusual ability altogether, not even to retaliate against her arch nemesis, Ava Coolidge.
Then comes the day she's forced to defend not only herself, but Ava's older brother, Dave, against two unlikely attackers. As the son of the most powerful family in town, Dave represents everything Celeste hates. Or thought she hated. But the golden boy of Pearl Falls is nothing like she expects. When one of their attackers turns up dead, Dave's determined to protect Celeste and her secret, lest anyone assume the worst.
What's more, the mysterious markings on the body mirror those seen in another unsolved murder: Dave's own mother's. With Celeste, Dave, and their friends forming an unlikely alliance to solve these cold cases, she's finding it harder and harder to keep her secret. And just as she's opening her heart for the first time, she learns that Dave has a secret of his own.
