Seventeen-year-old Hailey Steele killed her boyfriend in a car wreck, which fills her with guilt and self-loathing. So when Eli Carter enters her life, Hailey persistently denies her attraction and developing feelings for him. It's wrong to like someone else when your boyfriend is dead. It's easier to cope in other ways, like changing schools and using alcohol. Meanwhile, Jeremy McClure-not realizing he's dead-waits in the cemetery for his girlfriend to arrive. He's certain they agreed to meet. Why else would he be here? The last time Jeremy saw Hailey, they were cruising home on a dark and rain-slicked road after an underage party. What he doesn't expect is an encounter with someone else. Eli Carter has a jaded past. His junior year was full of skeletons, and his closet thrown wide open for the entire high school to see. But he manned up, and still got burned. With new girl Hailey, Eli has the chance for a fresh start, someone who knows nothing about his past. That is, if she'll ever give him the time of day. Told in alternating points of view, Haunted is the story of three teens whose lives cross after one fateful night, proving that one night changes everything.
