Wylddffe Abbey School for young ladies housed in a Gothic mansion on the bleak northern moors is elite, expensive, and unwelcoming. When Evie Johnson is torn away from her home by the sea to become the newest scholarship student, she is more isolated than she could have dreamed. Strict teachers, snobbish students, and the oppressive atmosphere of Wylddcliffe leave Evie drowning in loneliness.
Evie's only lifetime is Sebastian, a rebellious, mocking, dangerously attractive young man she meets by chance. As Evie's feelings for Sebastian grow with each secret meeting, she starts to fear that he is hiding something about his past. And she is haunted by glimpses of a strange, ghostly girl-a girl who is so eerily like Evie, she could be a sister. Evie is slowly drawn into a tangled web of his past and present that she cannot control.
And as the extraordinary, elemental forces of Wylddcliffe rise up like the mighty sea, Evie is faced with an astounding truth about Sebastian, and her own incredible fare.
(My Review): This story is a Gothic-like type of setup-which to me personally is a fantastic way to start off. At the beginning of the book It was sort of kind of depressing thing watching Evie not make friends and her enemies were trying to tear her down but the interesting part I like about this is (Small Spolier): that she goes out to meet Sebastian out at night and most of the times she never gets caught by anyone. And the girl Helen was so, different. I mean one minute she would be nice to talk to and then the next she was all "Leave Me Alone!" but I know now that she has a reason for being that way. I have about five more pages to go now before I'm done with the book, which probably means I should just go read the rest of It. Enjoy the book if you're interested in buying It.
