Torn from her native New York City and dumped in the land of cookie-cutter preps, Candice is resigned to accept her posh, dull fate. Nothing ever happens in Swoon, Connecticut...until Dice's perfect, privileged cousin Penelope nearly dies in a fall from an old tree, and her spirit intertwines with that of a ghost. His name? Sinclair Youngblood Powers. His mission? Revenge. And while Pen is oblivious to the possession, Dice is all too aware of Sin. She's intensely drawn to him -- but not at all crazy about the havoc he's wreaking. Determined to exorcise the demon, Dice accidentally sets Sin loose, gives him flesh, makes him formidable. Now she must destroy an even more potent -- and irresistible -- adversary, before the whole town succumbs to Sin's will. Only trouble is, she's in love with him.

"I loved this book! It really relates to teenagers today and what they have to deal with. It doesnt act like all teens are innocent angels and try to sugar coat everything. Teens face issues like drugs and sex everyday and i think this book is relatable to most teens."
— Tori (5 out of 5 stars)
“Sexy and deeply seductive…Swoon will make your every sense tingle!”
— Melissa de la Cruz, New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of the Blue Bloods series“Fast, sexy, clever—fans of Twilight have a new heroine to root for. I couldn’t put it down!”
— Karen Marie Moning, New York Times bestselling author“A captivatingly unique story of first love. Nina Malkin’s smart, vivid writing is a breath of fresh air. Simply unforgettable…Swoon will haunt you.”
— Lara Adrian, New York Times bestselling author of the Midnight Breed series“A spine-tingling collision of past and present, revenge and justice, lust and rage. True love has never been so truly terrifying.”
— Robin Wasserman, author of the Seven Deadly Sins series" I highly recommend NOT reading this book. While it seemed good when I was reading it and i was starting to like it, in the end, it's not worth it. I was left dissapointed and I really felt like I wasted my time with this book. I was also left confused at points in the story. It was hard to understand at times. "
— Shelby, 2/16/2014" i dont know it was wier didnt like it much :' "
— Shybabe13, 1/16/2014" I have just started this book, and so far, it's ok... Hopefully it gets better!! "
— Kara, 12/18/2013" This book is lots of fun - perfect, I think, for a teenage girl. It's not the kind of book I would normally read, but I found myself eager to find out what would happen and how it would develop. "
— Katherine, 12/16/2013" Okay I wish I could take away the one star but I can't so meh. It was not very anything. The main character did nothing. She watched her whole world fall apart and did nothing.Writing was confusing.Sorry Nina it didn'r do it for me. "
— Greenly, 11/17/2013" I didn't even make it 100 pages into this book. It was crude, there was bad language it just was't good at all. Skip this book. "
— Heather, 9/14/2013" Not approproate for YA but good book for adults very explicit at times. "
— Latrica, 7/11/2013" Not impressed, I too had to finish it merely because i NEVER stop in the middle. But i really really wanted too. "
— Jade, 7/7/2013" Haunting and captivating, I loved every single word in it! Can't wait for Swear~! "
— Louisse, 5/23/2013" I have never held a book in my hand that I've hated more then this one... D: "
— Delaney, 5/21/2013" Painful. So very painful. Don't read this if you want your brain to survive intact. Cringe- worthy. Soft-core porn that still manages to not be hot at all. "
— Chantelle, 4/27/2013" it was weird,but in a good way,and that made it different and unputdownable. "
— Rianne~, 1/24/2013" This book, was very very sexy! "
— Elsa, 7/25/2012" Not my kind of book it took me a while to finish it. The book just dragged on, but I will finish the series to see where it goes and if it will get a bit more exciting. "
— Laticia, 6/27/2012" I just couldn't get into this one..... "
— Kris, 6/18/2012" 3.5 stars. A little too angsty for me, but still quite good. "
— Michele, 6/13/2012" I had a really hard time getting through this book. I listened to the audiobook and I found myself not listening a lot. The story was a bit far-fetched and there was just a lot of weird stuff going on. I wouldn't recommend it. "
— Robin, 1/31/2012" Very disappointed with the end of this drawn out book. "
— Tess, 5/13/2011" I was shocked that this book is supposed to be for teens. It definitely should not be. It had very adult themes that were extremely uncomfortable to read. It was crass and awful, I didn't even bother to finish it. "
— Julie, 5/6/2011" The first few chapters are what drew me in. The middle is what drove me nuts but in the end as it turns out was a necessary evil to keep the reader (me) in check and add to the series….. sucked. The ending was excellent. "
— 4/28/2011" So you fall, then hit your head, and then you get swooned...? I hate this book, it was boring to me and only because I'm ocd about finishing a book a finished it. Not worth it guys! "
— Jennifer, 4/27/2011" Girl attracted to potentially dangerous boy... or something like that. Despite the fact that I finished this book last year it has totally slipped my mind, which leads me to believe that while I enjoyed this book very much it wasn't great enough for me to store in my long term memory. "
— Alma, 4/16/2011" This book was a little all over the place at the beginning. Then the story leveled out and was quite interesting.But ended the way it began. So I'm kind of torn in how I feel about it. I would recommend it as a young adult fiction, that it is. I believe I would read this author again. "
— Patricia, 4/5/2011" This wasn't quite what I was expecting. Sin doesn't even act like he's from forever ago. He get's with multiple girls, and hit's on multiple girls. Even though he slept with Dice's cousin, of whom's name I fail to remember, Dice still sleeps with him. Yup, seems like a present-day guy to me. "
