Graciela Harper thought running away from Heron Creek was the right decision. It was the only way she could see to save her friends from her murderous half-brother, so what else could she do? Not even an appearance from the mysterious Cade Walters or a call for help from an old college friend can change her mind, but when one of her ghosts arrives with a message, Gracie realizes there's no way she can hide forever - if the ghosts can find her, so can her brother. She returns home to Heron Creek, armed with new information about her family and determined to find a way to turn the tables on the Fournier family. A visit to New Orleans gives her hope that a real future with her boyfriend, Leo Boone, could be possible - but the trip takes a dark turn when her friends begin to disappear, one-by-one. Gracie knows she has to confront Dylan Travis - to kill him before he kills her - so she sets out to uncover where he's hiding her friends, And what she discovers is that it's going to take all of her ghosts, a little luck, and a whole lot of courage to get everyone out alive.

I've been publishing New Adult romance novels for a little over a year, starting with Broken at Love and continuing with the rest of the Whitman University series. I adore telling stories, discovering the little reasons people fall in love, and uncovering hidden truths in the world around us – past and present. In my spare time I cuddle my two dogs, pretend to enjoy exercising so that I can eat as much Chipotle as I want, and harbor a deep and abiding hope that Zac Efron likes older women. I loves reading, of course, along with movies, traveling, and Irish whiskey. I'm hard at work, ALWAYS, and hope to bring you more Whitman University antics and at least one more Lowcountry ghost tale before the end of the year.
