Newark, NJ (1888PressRelease) May 23, 2012 - Hazlet author and resident, Rebecca Weinstein, has released "Yokai," a teen paranormal romance novel about sixteen-year-old Kit Maguire, a girl who has never met her mother, made lasting friendships, or had a permanent home, and she's always known that she was a little different from others.

When Kit and her father move to Kyoto, Japan, her father insists that this time will be better, but Kit is reluctant to give it a try. The kids in Kyoto seem to be the same as everywhere else: judging her for her looks before they get to know her. She figures it's just one more short stop that she won't make friends, so why bother? With the appearance of her thought-to-be-dead mother, Kit yearns to find out more about her mom, their family, and why she has the ability to conjure green fire. When a girl named Yoriko insists on becoming friends and two of the hottest guys in school vie for her attention, things get complicated. Kit learns just who she is and what she's capable of, but with that knowledge comes the realization that she may never be able to have a relationship with Riku; as their clans are bitter enemies. Kit hopes that their love will bring the clans together and that she'll get everything she's ever wanted: family, friends, and a place to call home.

As part of an exclusive offer, Yokai, originally $2.99, will be available for FREE as part of a special promotion this Thursday, May 24th, only on Amazon.com.
