Fatal error: Call to undefined function isLitsy() in /var/www/html/inc_magicDB.php on line 425
I was born and raised in sunny California with my five siblings and now spend my days under the bright blue skies of North Carolina with my loving husband and three rambunctious dogs. I love chocolate, but who doesn’t? I hate slow drive through lines, especially when they stand between me and the Diet Coke I am craving.

I received a Bachelor’s degree in Philosophy from North Carolina State University. I had planned to continue on with law school, but instead, after raising a family, exploring multiple diverse career paths and at least as many different hair colors, I found a passion for writing young adult novels! For me, the most important components of a great story are interesting, relatable characters, loads of suspense, and a dash of romance.

If you were a dying, or severely disabled teen and were offered the chance to move your consciousness to a healthy body, would you do so? Seventeen year old Becca Tanner is dying of cancer. She hasn't much time left when her researcher dad offers her exactly that chance...Swap out her wasting body for one that's perfectly healthy. It's (no pun intended) a no-brainer. we meet her a few months following the procedure. Where her new body came from and the circumstances surrounding its availability are not something she's allowed to know, nor are why she must continue regular sessions with the creepy family therapist. Then there are the pills she must take every night, the lack of dreams and the creepy guy at her new school who is stalking her after two dates.
The story alternates between typical teen romance/drama and Becca's increasing sense that something is terribly off kilter about what really happened to land her in this new body. Every few chapters, readers are teased by one from the viewpoint of another female. When you near the end that person's identity is revealed and things speed up while becoming more sinister, setting you up for another book. I hope we don't have to wait very long for it to come. I did drop this one star because one of my pet peeves showed up. Becca's chased by someone in a truck, but when she's talking about it with friends the next day, it's now a car, then morphs back into a truck a few pages later. This should have been caught during proofing.
