A town with secrets. A girl with questions. And a revelation that's more shocking than any of them ever expected.     * * * * *

Sarah wants to spend the last months before college exploring her aunt's sleepy New England town while quietly crushing on the local football star, but the resident ghost has other plans. When evidence of an eighty-year-old murder is discovered, Sarah becomes convinced that the victim is trying to give her a message or perhaps, even a warning. But how could any of it be connected, and most importantly, what is there for her to be afraid of in sweet-as-(pumpkin spice) pie New Bedford?

[Vᴏʟᴜᴍᴇ 1 - Cᴏᴍᴘʟᴇᴛᴇ] Evelyn White was born with a gift - or rather, a curse: the first time she touches someone, she sees when and how that person dies. Meeting new people is sickening. Walking through a crowd is hell. Not to mention that when she opens her big mouth to tell people what's going to happen to them, most treat her like she's crazy - even after she saves their lives. But meddling with the future has consequences, and Death is not all there is to fear. As Evelyn races to find a way to save the new transfer student from being murdered, a voice starts whispering in her ear. Someone or something lurks in the shadows. Watching. Waiting. Trying to get close using mind games and tricks. It knows about her powers. It knows she can change Fate - and it's not alone. ------------------------------------------- This book is written in Australian English and uses British style grammar.

**WATTPAD HQ EDITOR'S PICK for August 2021** *FEATURED IN THE "CHILLS AND THRILLS" READING LIST ON WATTPAD'S "Paranormal" page!* **FEATURED ON WATTPAD'S #PrideatWattpad READING LIST** Can we understand what happens after death by summoning ghosts? And are ghosts... real? Twenty-two-year-olds Arielle Daniels and Stella Sullivan go on an east-coast ghost-hunting tour to honor their recently deceased best friend, Jade, whose death remains a mystery. Only her parents know the circumstances, and they refuse to tell anyone. Stella wants to pay her respects by following Jade's bucket-list; but Arielle wants real, palpable answers. What happens after death? Why has she lost so many loved ones? And how exactly did Jade die? In the midst of their journey, Arielle realizes she might have been in love with Jade, but now... she has no way to be sure, and no idea how to reveal this to Stella--or anyone else, for that matter. As they travel, the girls discover more about themselves than they anticipated, both forced to come to terms with their emotions; Arielle to accept her bisexuality, and Stella to acknowledge her heritage as the descendant of a long line of psychic mediums. But the trip takes on an eerie tone when they get more than they bargained for, and swallow up more occult knowledge than either ever expected to find in their lifetimes. • WARNING: this book is rated MATURE for handling triggering, sensitive issues. There will be jumps, screams, and heart-palpitating moments. Proceed with caution.

Two girls, chasing their dreams, find themselves caught in a web of secrets tied to a forbidden past. But as their bond is tested by time, love, and betrayal, the unshakable friendship they once shared begins to crumble. "I love you! Because of you, I laughed a little harder, cried a little less, and smiled a little more." "I love you too! I just want you-your flaws, mistakes, smiles, and everything about you." But the love that once brought them together begins to fade. "You're not the same Bella. You're not the Bella I loved." "That's nonsense! I'm the same Bella you always loved! What's gotten into you?" "I know my Bella. I could recognize her by the freckle on her skin. But you're not her." Heartbreak sets in: "Don't you love me anymore?" she asks, as tears streak her face. But trust has been shattered. Tempers flare, and dark truths emerge: "Say it once again?" "I HATE YOU, LILY! I hate every single damn action you take! You think you're a leader? You're just a loser. All this mess is because of you! Why didn't you die that night instead of them?" As the tension escalates, a new conflict arises: "Harry just asked me out for the college prom," Lily says. "Then say no. It's simple," Bella snaps. "What's wrong with you, Bella? I like him, and I'm saying yes!" "There you go again, deciding things by yourself. Just like that night when you acted on your own and called a cursed child." With love on one side and loyalty on the other, Lily must navigate heartbreak, misunderstandings, and regret. Meanwhile, the mystery of their shared past looms larger, threatening to unravel everything. Can their friendship survive the trials of love, loss, and betrayal? Will the truth set them free-or destroy them completely?

While her best friend Cassidy snacks on brie and boys in France, Darcy Li-Quinn must face her last year of high school and the unpredictable wrath of her sister, Danica, alone. Darcy's plan for dealing with Danica and her heinous friends is simple-be invisible. But first, she's promised Cassidy she'll do 'one brave thing'. Mustering the courage to say 'hi' to the cute boy on the bus, Darcy expects rejection or indifference. She doesn't anticipate a grumpy ghost with unfinished business who needs her help. Suddenly, a quiet year of flying under the radar looks increasingly unlikely. *** Rationally, Hunter Viera knows that his brother's death wasn't his fault. But that doesn't stop his guilt about Archer invading his every thought or lessen the grief sitting heavy in his chest. Changing schools offers a fresh start, and Hunter's plan is simple-be invisible. But he hasn't counted on Darcy, or her ludicrous claim that Archer speaks to her from beyond the grave. Suddenly, a quiet year of sitting on the sidelines looks increasingly unlikely. *** This is a story about hearts and hope and public transport. This is Darcy and Hunter's story (and a little bit Archer's too). *** 'Get A Life' is my entry for Open Novella Contest 2023 and is inspired by the following prompts. 20. You finally build enough courage to talk to that cute someone you see every day on the bus. Their face turns dark as they respond "You shouldn't be able to see me." 9. There's an urban legend that's been circulating for years about a taxi cab that doesn't take you where you want to go, but where you need to go. One night, you stepped into this cab.

✨COMPLETED✨ I took a few steps before I stopped to face him again. "Jay?" I said, barely above a whisper. "Hmm?" "I love you. You know that right?" I asked, kind of unsure. "of course. Of course I do." He said, scrunching his eyebrows as if he doesn't understand why I would randomly say that. "I love you very much." I repeated, every bone in my body aching from this pain, this betrayal. What I'm doing, or going to do, is definitely some form of betrayal. But I don't have a choice, right? He needs to understand that I don't have a choice. Or do I? "I do too. But...Why are you saying it like that?" He asked, feeling a little anxious. "Like what?" I replied, praying to dear God he doesn't say something that'll make me cry. "Like you're saying goodbye." 🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸 Alexis Pierce is just another high school clumsy story. She falls and trips over random stuff, says the weirdest words ever, but she is one of the smartest would-be detectives out there.
