Cover Reveal and Giveaway: Phobic (The Forbidden Doors #1) by Cortney Pearson

Release Date: September 8th, 2014

Description:

Fifteen-year-old Piper Crenshaw knows her house is strange. It’s never needed repairs since it was built in the 1800s, and the lights flicker in response to things she says. As if those things aren’t creepy enough, it’s also the place where her mother committed murder.

To prove she’s not afraid of where she lives, Piper opens a forbidden door, which hides a staircase that leads to the ceiling. That’s when the flashbacks of the original residents from 1875 start, including a love affair between two young servants. Each vision pulls Piper deeper into not only their story, but also her house. Piper confides in her best friend, Todd, whom she's gradually falling for, but even he doesn't believe her. At least, not until her house gets axed during a prank, and the act injures Piper instead, cutting a gash the size of Texas into her stomach.

Piper realizes her house isn’t haunted—it’s alive. To sever her link to it, she must unravel the clues in the flashbacks and uncover the truth about her mother’s crime, before she becomes part of her house for good.

About the author:

Having a car accident was a scary experience. A car that wasn't paying attention slammed into the side of my car. It shook me up.

Nothing too terrifying. My best friend and I used to venture to this desolate area on the Ohio/Pennsylvania border that was supposedly haunted though we never came across anything! This books sounds awesome, though. Thanks for sharing!
