Daphne Wentworth is almost seventeen, definitely a red head, and most likely the tallest girl in her class, which is awkward to say the least when it comes to dating boys in her school. But she doesn't have to worry about school for the next two months since she's spending the summer at her aunt Dwill's lighthouse in Maine.
What she does have to worry about is seeing ghosts in the lighthouse cemetery, having strange dreams, and hearing the voices of star-crossed lovers who lived two-hundred years ago. And then there's a local boy named Zach Philbrook who works for her aunt. He's too gorgeous for his own good. He's also very tall, with midnight black hair, and the most beautiful indigo blue eyes Daphne has ever seen.
Zach is treated like an outcast by the local teens in town. He's Micmac and therefore not "one of the gang". Daphne can't help being drawn to his strength, especially considering that he's had to live his entire life dealing with ignorance. But the local teens aren't the only trouble-makers in town. As Zach and Daphne get closer, the lighthouse ghost lovers begin haunting them. When Daphne and Zach try to figure out how to fight them, the spirits get bolder and more dangerous.
So how do you protect yourself from something that isn't really there?
