Jane is a 16-year old girl with a promiscuous past and a habit of driving her single mother crazy. They move to a new town with a chance for both of them to start over, but it doesn’t take long before Jane has trouble following her again. An admirer finds her very attractive and isn’t afraid to tell Jane how much he loves seeing her at school every day. But there’s someone else who wants to talk to Jane: Lizzie.
Lizzie was once a very “close friend” of this secret admirer, a little too close perhaps. Coincidentally, Jane bears a striking resemblance to Lizzie. Even more coincidentally, Lizzie once lived in the same house in which Jane and her family now live. The reason Lizzie no longer lives in that house? Lizzie is dead, but that doesn’t stop her from trying to warn Jane that this admirer is definitely not someone with whom she should get involved.
Lizzie kept a journal in the weeks before she was killed. That journal has many interesting things to say about Jane’s admirer. So many interesting things that it would be the end of him if it fell into the hands of the authorities.
92,000 words – Supernatural suspense collides with an illicit affair.
Wow! Sounds pretty awesome! Is this a novel or something?
it’s a novel that i had self published. but i took it offline because i think it can be sold to a traditional publisher. i was told by an editor that if i would re-write it in first person, then it would far more attractive to readers. if you wanted to read the whole thing, i could send you a copy.
Yes! I want to read it 🙂
hmm. i could send you a pdf version. if that would work for you to read it on your computer or tablet or whatever you use.
it would come up on my mac 😉 so yeah thanks, maybe if i showed some of my friends who were interested we could make you and your book famous lol x
i’m not worried about that, but i appreciate your thought. the problem is that it really needs a good revision, and that won’t happen for at least a year. the beginning might drag a bit because i have too much back story. once you get through that, then it takes off.
oh ok, i get it x that ok, it would be better for me to understand the characters than be confused as to whats going on x
i deleted the reply with the email so other people wouldn’t get it if you didn’t want that to happen. i sent a note to make sure it was the right one.
yep i got it, its me x
if you want to give me your email, i’ll send you a copy.
this book sounds so cool x
