Descripción editorial
You've Reached Sam meets If I Stay in this epic romance spanning life and death, from New York Times bestselling author Laura Taylor Namey.
Sylvie Castellano is used to goodbyes. Every summer, her friends leave to vacation at faraway beaches and her parents jet off to work on a luxury yacht, dumping her with her tia Vivian. Sylvie may love her aunt Viv, but just once, she wishes the summer held a big adventure for her, too.
When Sylvie scores the thrift find of a lifetime-a vintage gold watch worth thousands-she thinks maybe her luck is turning around. Then a turn of the watch's dial summons a ghost boy. With no idea who he is or why he's attached to the watch, and only his name to go off of-Penn-Sylvie offers to help him unravel the mystery of his death.
Sylvie's summer is suddenly full of road trips, beach bonfires, and ferris wheel rides as she and Penn try to piece together the life he lost. But soon, Sylvie begins to imagine a future together-a future they can never have. Then a devastating discovery brings everything crashing down. The watch's secrets extend far beyond Penn, and it's not only Sylvie's heart at risk, but her life.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In her first speculative novel, Namey (With Love, Echo Park) delivers a rejuvenating romantic drama with a gasp-inducing twist. Left alone by her Cuba-born parents, who work aboard a luxury yacht, 18-year-old southern California native Sylvie Castellano resigns herself to spending the summer in the "mystical hotspot" of Sacred, Ore., with her beloved tía Vivian while managing post-concussion syndrome following a cheerleading fall. In Sacred, Sylvie snags a broken, bargain-priced designer watch in an antique shop, believing that its resale value will finance her post-high school dream of moving away from home. But when the watch suddenly begins ticking again and summons 19-year-old Penn Gerrity, a ghost with amnesia, Sylvie postpones her entrepreneurial plans to help Penn solve the mystery of his identity, despite the risk that this added stress poses for her PCS. As reluctant friendship becomes mutual pining, though, Sylvie finds herself longing for a future—albeit an impossible one—with Penn. A delightfully ornery, scene-stealing cat balances the earnest revelations and tension that Sylvie navigates en route to self-discovery and love. While unresolved plot threads may frustrate some readers, slow-burn romance is steeped in a tantalizing mystery that gratifies and enchants. Ages 14–up.
