A steamy YA romance inspired by Gaston Leroux's classic The Phantom of the Opera

Seventeen-year-old Stephanie Armand doesn't believe in ghosts or spirits. Despite her six-year-old sister insisting a masked figure is hiding in her closet, and the rumors at school, Stephanie isn't convinced her father's latest renovation project--a crumbling Victorian mansion--houses the soul of a monster. So when the very charming (and paranormal-obsessed) Lucas Cheney takes an interest in both Stephanie and her notorious home, Moldavia, the supernatural and romantic activity escalates to an all-time high. But then there's Erik-- the dashing British boy, seemingly from another era, who's taken up residence in Stephanie's nightly dreams. A boy who may have something to do with the man in the mask, and the strange occurrences taking place at Moldavia.

Praise for Phantom Heart

Praise for Kelly Creagh's Nevermore trilogy

"Always one step ahead of the reader, Nevermore is a book to engage in, speculate over, and savor." --New York Journal of Books

"Verses from Poe's poems and synopses of his stories are woven seamlessly into the story, and the ghoulish spirit Pinfeathers is memorably menacing and gory . . . a creepy, otherworldly climax." --Kirkus Reviews

"Creagh effectively builds tension, and those with an interest in the literary figure will savor allusions to his oeuvre and mysterious death."--Publishers Weekly

"This Gothic Romeo/Juliet story is an English teacher's jewel box, with high appeal for readers who might ignore classic literature. Veiled and overt allusions to Poe, Shakespeare, and Frost will support discussion about love, loyalty, popularity, and independence beyond the trendy, dramatic, supernatural action." --VOYA

"Creagh's strength lies in her ability to sustain these rich, vivid dream sequences while orchestrating a shifting series of plot surprises . . . for fans of Maggie Stiefvater's Raven Boys series and Meg Wolitzer's Belzhar."--Booklist
