Static

Jessie Creek is haunted.Haunted by her own mistakes, her mother's choices, and the ghosts of every regret she swore she'd never repeat, Jessie is running out of ways to keep going. Giving in, becoming one of those ghosts herself, feels almost inevitable.At the edge, she meets Ryan Hackett: nosey, sharp-tongued, and far too clever for his own good. A devout skeptic, he's built an online following by debunking the very stories Jessie can't seem to escape.When a twist of fate throws them together, neither can explain why the strange incidents around Jessie are getting harder to ignore, or why ignoring those connections almost feels dangerous.Romance, drama, grief, and dark humor collide in this unflinching, deeply human exploration of what it means to be seen when you'd rather disappear. Carlisle's debut in paranormal fiction, Static delivers a haunting exploration of trauma, empathy, and the fragile intersections between belief and denial. Carlisle's Static isn't just a ghost story, it's a story about the people who become them.
