BLURB:
Eighteen-year-old Sara Browne is about to step off a cliff. She is taking a giant leap into the world of college—a normal transition for most, but not for Sara. The car accident that stole her parents happened six years ago, but it was just yesterday for Sara.
She wants to trust her heart, but Scott’s promiscuous past creeps into their lives. Jealous ex-girlfriends are one thing, but the stranger who keeps sending Sara threatening letters is far worse. Someone is determined to destroy her relationship with Scott and the life Sara is trying so hard to rebuild.

When I returned to my study area, my laptop was off, the screen blank. It wouldn’t power up, either. Battery? No, I had just charged it right before I left my dorm. My water bottle was three-quarters full when I had left it a few minutes ago. Now it was empty. A few droplets beaded on the keyboard. I picked up the now empty bottle, which was still upright, not tipped over, its cap secured in place. Had someone opened my bottle, tipped it over, and put the cap back on? What the? I looked around. Nothing about this situation made sense. The first thing that came to mind was sabotage—the second, Rachael. “I’ll return the favor,” she had vowed at the tailgate. Was this payback for the spilled-beer incident? Was a laptop worth the same as a Versace outfit?
That night, I walked to my
car to do a grocery run. When I got there, my windows were marred with pink
marker, the words “Watch your back,” in all caps. The windshield, the side
windows, and the back. They were all covered. I used the hand wipes in my car
to clean it off.
It seemed ruining my
laptop wasn’t enough; Rachael was on the warpath. If not her, then someone
else, which worried me beyond words. Considering my hypersensitivity to
dangerous situations, it was like throwing gasoline on the tinderbox that was
my PTSD. No one knew me here. And after running the situation through my mind,
the only reason I could come up with, aside from Rachael’s ruined outfit, was
my new relationship with Scott. Either Rachael was jealous or someone else was.
Mindy and Charlene came to mind. Needless to say, I didn’t sleep a wink that
night.

It's 4:30 p.m., and after
returning a text to Scott who had wished me luck, I drove across town, my hands
visibly shaking. Was I even going to be able to speak? My throat thickened at
the thought of it.
I parked and walked into a
brick municipal-looking building, adorned with lots of windows, and found a
sign on the first floor for Dr. Zeller, Suite 100, which was just down the
hall. Once inside, a note welcomed me from the top of a side table: “Make
yourself comfortable, and your therapist will be right out.” Next to the sign,
sat a small radio where light music played. The room smelled of rosemary with a
hint of mint—all props meant to relax nervous patients, I was sure.
No one was there, so I
took one of four chairs available and flipped through various magazines, my
mind elsewhere.
Within no time, a squeak
in the carpeted floor alerted me that Dr. Zeller was approaching. The same
woman whom I had seen on the website, reached her hand out and smiled. “You
must be Sara.”
With sweaty palms, I rose
to my feet, shaking her hand and trying my best to steady my lower lip from
vibrating. In fact, my entire body was trembling. I hoped she didn’t
notice.
“I’m Dr. Zeller.” She
swept one arm toward an open door, ten feet away. “We’re right in here.”

Just when she thinks the craziness of the past is finally over—and for good—a
mysterious stranger shows up at her graduation that turns Sara’s world upside
down. This man may just be the answer to her prayers or another devastating
blow to her already traumatic life.

As the people around me joked
and chatted, and Mel ran around my legs, playing peekaboo with Scott, who
crouched down, giving her his full attention, the heebie-jeebies continued to
niggle at my nerves.
What is happening?
All at once, the reason
for my discomfort emerged from the crowd. A big reason. For a moment, time
stood still. What was I seeing? I blinked, and then I blinked again. It wasn’t
possible. My father died ten years ago. I knew this because I was there when it
happened. So, what was he doing here now?
