AUTHOR BIO:
Monica James spent her youth devouring the works of Anne Rice, William Shakespeare and Emily Dickinson.
When she is not
writing, Monica is busy, running her own business, but she always finds a balance
between the two.
She enjoys
writing honest, heartfelt and turbulent stories, hoping to leave an
imprint on her readers, and her inspiration comes from every day life. She is
an Amazon best selling author in both the US and UK.
Monica James
resides in Melbourne, Australia, with her wonderful family, and menagerie of
animals.
She is slightly
obsessed with cats, chucks and lip gloss, and secretly wishes she was a ninja
on the weekends.
BLURB:
A secret she’s
kept hidden since she was eight years old, however, Mia will no longer allow
that secret to define her.
An irrevocable
decision has left Mia Lee a fugitive and on the run—a circumstance that should
leave her weak and scared, yet Mia has never felt so alive.
Under the
pseudonym of Paige Cassidy, Mia is ready to live the life she’s never had, and
she’s determined not to allow her tainted past dictate her promising future.
Paige is on a
Greyhound bus heading from L.A. to South Boston, Virginia, to start a new life.
A life that includes finding her mother, who abandoned her at age three. But
what she finds, is four people, who will change her life forever.
Yet no one can
outrun their past…
Especially one
filled with bitter memories, which refuse to remain hidden.
It feels effortless. And it feels right.
We stay hugging for a few moments, and as I nestle closer to his chest, surrounded by his smell, I know that I’m in trouble. I have feelings for someone who is going to be really, really hard to say goodbye to when the time comes. But when did this happen? When was the exact moment my world got tipped on its axis, and shaken up beyond repair?
I should have stopped it, but who am I to stand in the way of something that was inevitable?
The sound of Quinn’s heart beating steadily against my ear is comforting, and if I close my eyes really tight, I can pretend that I’m just a normal girl, being wrapped up in the arms of her normal…boyfriend? But make believe is for dreamers, and I’m a realist. I will enjoy the here and now because I don’t know what tomorrow holds.
