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

Description

Phantom Heart is 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 rumours 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.

Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?
