THANK YOU, Wattpad, for the HQ Love Watty Award! Concept: A mysterious young woman flees from her troubled past only to discover it is impossible to escape THE SECRET that haunts her. *PLEASE NOTE: This story was originally inspired by the movie "Sleeping With the Enemy". * * * * * "I would never, Steven," she promised, turning away from him in an attempt to protect herself. "I know you wouldn't," he screamed. Cupping her chin in his hand, he forced her to look at him. "Because I would kill you." His words hung heavy in the air. Sarah's heart sank into her stomach. No matter how many times she'd heard the menacing phrase, she could never get used to it. It had the same affect on her as the first time he'd thrown the ugly words in her face. The familiar sting of bile rose in her throat, and she knew she would deplete the contents of her stomach once she was locked in the safety of their master bath. 'If I make it through this time,' she agonized. Her biggest fear was that one day he would really lose his temper with her. Who knew what would happen then? *This story is an unedited first draft. Top Ranks: Action #1, Mystery and Thriller #1 *This story contains scenes of abuse and may be disturbing to some readers. While the characters are fictional, domestic violence is a serious issue that many people across the world face. If you or someone you know is the victim of abuse, please seek help immediately.

Zoey Castro is the wallflower of Asheville High. She's just another girl who doesn't live up to her parent's expectations, another girl who wishes she was perfect and fashionable like cheer leader Adira Scott. Zoey's not a loner, she's the kind of girl that likes to stay under the radar, with her only friend, Gage Prince. But her anonymity and privacy aren't about to last. When she starts dating football quarterback Eathan Harker, she thinks life is sweet. Besides Gage starting to act weird and the usual teenager stuff, she's doing great. When tragedy strikes the small town of Asheville, North Carolina, life isn't so sweet anymore. Zoey's newly discovered limelight is putting her in the most danger of her life. Even more dangerous than Eathan Harker and Gage Prince both being in love with her. A serial killer is going after the 'popular' girls of Asheville High, and guess who's right at the top of his list? Zoey Castro, the wallflower. And her hypnotizing wallflower effect is about to get her in loads of trouble. *Note. I've noticed people seem to think this is a teen romance. It's not. It's marked as a thriller for a reason. There's some violence and other things that make it different from your average romance, so please, don't be surprised if it's a tad gory.*
