After Obsession by Carrie Jones and Steven Wedel

Aimee has been having nightmares for a long time. When her mother was alive, she would share the details of these nightmares. With her mother gone, Aimee struggles to appear normal to her family and her friends. Her visions are getting stronger and harder to hide.

Alan is new to town, moving to Goffstown, Maine after his cousin Courtney's dad goes missing. Alan is not happy with the move, especially since the high school doesn't have a football team. Then he meets Aimee--first in a dream and then in real life. Alan tries to remain true to his Native American heritage and realizes something isn't right in Goffstown and Courtney may be at the center of it.

Together, Aimee and Alan must find a way to confront and defeat an ancient evil plaguing the town--specifically, Courtney. Aimee also believes her mother may be involved. The River Man is powerful and Aimee and Alan aren't sure if they can do this and survive.

Engrossing. I enjoy paranormal romance stories anyway, but the alternative voice here is an added bonus. The River Man is creepy and powerful. Alan and Aimee come across as believable and their story works well together.

Need by Carrie Jones

Zara has been sent to Maine after her stepdad died. Zara sees it as punishment, but she was sent up to Maine to save her life and for a change of scenery.

Zara however, feels stalked. A guy she saw at the airport in Charleston is now appearing in Maine, and she thinks she can hear him calling her name from the surrounding woods. Her new friends, Devyn, Issie, and Nick are all sure there are pixies--blood-thirsty pixies--nearby and they want Zara to be their new queen. Zara's not sure who to trust or what to believe as everyone around her seems to be hiding something. One thing she is sure of--her stepfather knew what was going on, but he can't help her now.

I really enjoyed this book. I am a big fan of supernatural anyway, but taking a twist on pixies is a new one! Zara is a great character to follow along with, and I can't wait to read Captivate, the sequel to Need.
