Key item features
Publishers Weekly,If ever a YA novel were primed for late-night Cinemax adaptation, it's Malkin's (The Uncensored Confessions) latest. Protagonist Dice (who has visions) moves to Swoon, Conn., and, one day, while swinging on a tree, her cousin Pen awakens a restless, vengeful spirit, Sinclair Youngblood Powers. He initially inhabits Pen's body, but eventually gains a body of his own after Dice turns him into a gorgeous, living, breathing golem named Sin. Pre-golem, Sin turns Pen into the horny center of Swoon, and as a golem, Sin continues to wreak sexual havoc on the town-including deflowering Pen, a "Homecoming Orgy" (where a sexual assault occurs and is then mocked) and a spanking scene. While Malkin's prose has a jarring (yet pleasing) lilt to it-her chapters begin with short, vivid statements and Dice offers pithy observations about whatever is happening at the moment-her style is not enough to salvage what comes across as more a series of orgasms and innuendo than an actual story. This book makes Gossip Girl look like Sweet Valley High without the fun and irony. Ages 16-up. (May) (c) Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved

About this item
Product details
Sin is coming... Prepare to Swoon. Torn from her native New York City and dumped in the land of cookie-cutter preps, Candice is resigned to accept her posh, dull fate. Nothing ever happens in Swoon, Connecticut...until Dice's perfect, privileged cousin Penelope nearly dies in a fall from an old tree, and her spirit intertwines with that of a ghost. His name? Sinclair Youngblood Powers. His mission? Revenge. And while Pen is oblivious to the possession, Dice is all too aware of Sin. She's intensely drawn to him--but not at all crazy about the havoc he's wreaking. Determined to exorcise the demon, Dice accidentally sets Sin loose, gives him flesh, makes him formidable. Now she must destroy an even more potent--and irresistible--adversary, before the whole town succumbs to Sin's will. Only trouble is, she's in love with him. What do you do when the boy of your dreams is too bad to be true? "Sexy and deeply seductive...Swoon will make your every sense tingle!"
--Melissa de la Cruz, bestselling author of the Blue Bloods series "A captivatingly unique story of first love. Nina Malkin's smart, vivid writing is a breath of fresh air. Simply unforgettable . . . Swoon will haunt you."
--Lara Adrian, bestselling author of the Midnight Breed series "Swoon is (forgive the pun) divinely swoon-worthy. Fast, sexy, clever--fans of Twilight have a new heroine to root for. I couldn't put it down!"
--Karen Marie Moning, bestselling author of the Highlander and Fever series "A spine-tingling collision of past and present, revenge and justice, lust and rage. True love has never been so truly terrifying." --Robin Wasserman, author of the Seven Deadly Sins series and Skinned
