When Ava Flynn walks away from a scholarship to Georgetown and moves into her grandmother’s abandoned summer home in coastal Maine, she steps into the center of a centuries-old curse. On her first night, she notices a mysterious leather-clad stranger looking up at her third-story window. For weeks, everywhere she goes, Ava catches more glimpses of him, but she can never get close enough to find out who he is.
Over three hundred years ago, Lady Catherine Fairchild risked everything to protect her unborn child, sending a ripple through time that would change Ava’s future. But, as the mystery unravels, the horrifying consequences of Lady Catherine’s choices drag Ava deeper into a world she never knew existed, trapping her in a conflict that’s been raging since before she was born. A winner-take-all battle for her soul.
About the Author:
After walking away from her career as a business banker to pursue writing full-time, Erica moved from the hustle and bustle of the big city to a small tourist town in the North Georgia Mountains where she lives in a 90-year-old haunted farmhouse with her workaholic husband, her 180lb lap dog, and at least one ghost.
When she’s not busy writing or tending to her collection of crazy chickens, diabolical ducks, and a quintet of piglets, hell-bent on having her for dinner, she’s either reading bad fan fiction or singing karaoke in the local pub. Much like the characters in her books, Erica is a magnet for disaster and has been known to trip on air while walking across flat surfaces.
How she’s managed to survive this long is one of life’s great mysteries.
You can find out more about Erica, in addition to her humorous blog posts and disasters, on her website.

Splintered Souls Review:
It’s been so long since I read a good YA paranormal romance novel which made me invested in the plot, and I thought “Splintered Souls” was a great start to the series!
To begin with, I liked the way the author told the story. It was interesting to see the flashbacks between the past and the present and how the two storylines interconnected. The storyline from the 1600s gave the book a haunted, gothic feel as Lady Catherine does something that changes her life. The present storyline was also eerie, romantic, and mysterious as Ava moves in and sees the mystery guy. There are quite a few twists and turns that I did not expect, which added nicely to the plot. But there is much more to the story than your usual young adult fantasy with paranormal entities. You have time travel, mistaken identities, centuries-old curses, and so much more.
Moreover, I liked all the three main characters. I loved the triangle between Ava, Maddox, and Laith, and it was interesting to see how Ava toggles between the two. My favorite character was Laith because I thought he was very complex. Initially, he comes off as a negative character. However, as the story progressed, you realize that there are reasons behind his actions, making you see him differently. Similarly, I adored Josh and thought made the story lighthearted with humor.
The author also ends the story in a gripping cliffhanger that makes you want to pick the next book to see how the story continues. Overall, I thought “Splintered Souls” was a lovely start to the series, and curious to see how it continues.
