Walk of the Spirits: When Miranda Barnes first sees the sleepy town of St. Yvette, Louisiana, with its moss-draped trees, above-ground cemeteries, and her grandfather’s creepy historic home, she realizes that life as she knew it is officially over. Almost immediately, there seems to be something cloying at her. Something lonely and sad and . . . very pressing. Even at school and in the group project she’s been thrown into, she can’t escape it. Whispers when she’s alone, shadows when no one is there to make them, and a distant pleading voice that wakes her from sleep. The other members in Miranda’s group project, especially handsome Etienne, can see that Miranda is in distress. She is beginning to understand that, like her grandfather before her, she has a special gift of communicating with spirits who still walk the town of St. Yvette. And no matter where she turns, Miranda feels bound by their whispered pleas for help . . . unless she can somehow find a way to bring them peace. Shadow Mirror: Unsettling. There's no better word to describe Miranda Barnes's ability to hear the cries of the dead, feel the wind move her hair when they run by, and - dare she look into a mirror - see the reflection of a ghostly woman behind her. There's only one person to turn to for support: Etienne. As sexy as he is mysterious, Miranda can't help but be drawn to him. He believes her; he wants to help her. But there's a secret in Etienne's past, something Miranda's on the verge of discovering. As paranormal activity escalates, passion grows, and soon Miranda is caught up in both love . . . and tragedy.

One the best paranormal story I have read so far. I even wanted to call on sick at work so I didn't have to put the book down. I loved both books of the Spirit Walk series.
Walk of the spirits at the beginning give me the sensation I was seeing an episode of Ghost Whisperer but much more beautiful in detail and voice. What got me in to reading this book was my personal experience with the paranormal, I like with Miranda had to move to another place with completely strangers, but I had experience ghostly encounters in my home town in Mexico something Miranda didn't experienced until she and her mother moved to St. Yvette My friend and I used to do something like the Ghost walk or like Ashley name it Walk of the Spirits in our neighborhood. Sometimes we heard rounds like moaning, crying; but on one occasion we saw a shadowed human figure floating on a small corn field. It scared the crap out of us, just like Miranda with her first encounters with the paranormal phenomena. This first Spirit Walk book brought some old but beautiful memories of true friendship. This story was romantic like Ashley said about their ghost walk because it illustrates the true nature of friendship and the sacrifices we endure sometimes for that friendship. Walk of the Spirits made me feel all kinds of different emotions. Frustration was one that got me by surprise, when Miranda was asking for help from her Grandpa and he said “Listen, Miranda…watch” I wanted to scream at her that it was the watch that he didn't want her to watch. But then, she figured it out just like her grandfather always did. I felt so sad for Nathan. Oh Nathan! He only wanted to protect his Ellena. They resemble so much with Ashley and Parker; and I think that was the intention Cusick wanted to. I think she wanted her readers to know that love never truly dies, and the maybe it reincarnates with another couple. All the characters grab you and make you what to be part of the group.
On Shadow Mirror a whole new adventure and new scares awaits Miranda and his friends. I could not stop crying in some parts of this book. It was so touching and beautiful that make me feel of warm and fussy inside. Oh poor Etienne, he suffer so much in the inside. I am so glad he got Miranda with him. I love how Miranda and Etienne’s relationship gets stronger. Also, the bond between Miranda and Parker seems to be growing because they aren't so different. The tragic story of Miranda’s ghost at Belle Chandelle broke my heart and some what make me feel like there is this kind of reincarnation between the ghost and Etienne, Gage and Miss Nell again. And what to say about the secret between them, the love of a mom has no limits. Shadow Mirror leaves you ending with the hope of a third book.
Overall, I love southern plots. This series was amazing, so romantic not only in the sense of a couple but the love between friends. I can’t wait to read this heart melting, fascinating and beautiful story again.
Now, after reading the first book, I want to begin my own research of the secrets and dark history of the small town I moved in. I want to find out what happening the house I live in, because the paranormal it’s part of this house.I have seen the little girl who appears to be six years old. Like Miranda said in book number 2, Shadow mirror:
the answer’s waiting for me.
At some unknown time…but soon.
In some unknown place …but close .
