My heart squeezed tight at the sight of him–my towering man with his hangdog frown. “I–” I pointed behind me. “It’s time for me to go.” “Yeah.” Josh stared at the floor as he slowly moved toward me. “I’ll call you when I get there.” “Okay.” Damn, I was going to miss that deep voice–the soft, husky sound of it. His pale blue gaze hit me, making me feel everything from guilt to despair. He opened his mouth to speak but couldn’t say anything. He’d always struggled to talk about his feelings. I guess I just instinctively knew most of them, and as much as I wanted it, I couldn’t expect gushy prose. I needed to get the goodbye over with.

REVIEW Betwixt is an amazing story of one young girl’s brush with death and her journey to self-realization and acceptance. Nicole Tepper had a lot going for her – she lives in a nice neighborhood, she’s socially popular at school, she has a hot boyfriend, and she’s pretty. You’d think that’s all it takes to be happy.

She just did it in all the wrong ways.

RELEASE DAY GIVEAWAY: Before by Melissa Pearl
Excerpt: The car horn sounded like a trumpet, making me laugh hysterically. Hugh was anything but subtle. Jamming my feet into my Converse shoes, I tie the laces in a hurry and rush for the door. “Where are you going?” My mother, one of the shortest people I know, tries to block my way. I gently nudge her aside as I zip up my hoody. “I’m going out,” I mumble. “No you’re not. It’s Friday night. You have youth group. Your father is expecting to see you there.” “Well he’s going to be disappointed…again. How many times do I have to tell you guys I’m not interested? I don’t want to sound snarky, but I can’t help it. I hate youth group. I hate church. I hate that my minister is my dad who is constantly harping on about it and forcing me to go to stuff that is as… Read more »
