Shimmer

" Gaby thought her life couldn't get more complicated. She's almost used to the idea that she's not the teenage backpacker she thought she was. She can just about cope with being one of the Rephaim - a 139-year-old half-angel - whose memories have been stolen. She's even coming to grips with the fact that Jude, the brother she's mourned for a year, didn't die at all. But now Rafa - sexy, infuriating Rafa - is being held, and hurt, by Gatekeeper demons. And Gaby has to get the bitterly divided Rephaim to work together, or Rafa has no chance at all. It's a race against time - and history. And it may already be too late. Paula Weston lives in Brisbane with her husband, a retired greyhound and a moody cockatiel. Haze is the second book in the Rephaim series. Shadows is the first.facebook.com/PaulaWestonAuthorfacebook.com/theRephaimtwitter.com/paulaweston Praise for The Rephaim series: 'If this doesn't drag young adult readers away from their computer screens, nothing will...Aussie author Paula Weston's debut is a fast-paced, sensational ride, which screams ""read me"" and ""turn me into a movie"".' Adelaide Advertiser 'The smart-mouthed character of Rafa kicked the Edwards, Peters and Jacobs of the YA world to the curb. If only he were real...' Sun Bookshop 'If you told me last week that I'd be fan-girling over a YA urban fantasy series I would've stared at you blankly then hurled a copy of Friday Brown at your face...I loved this book. Loved. And it's an angel book.' Trin in the Wind blog 'Some books you crave. You keep returning to the cover art and re-reading the blurb, you stalk the authors' Twitter, Tumblr, Goodreads profiles in the hopes of gleaning morsels of information...you count-down to release day. Paula Weston's Haze was just such a craving...Weston is something special indeed, and The Rephaim is one of the most original and intriguing new young adult series available.' ALPHA reader"
