When fifteen-year-old Chloe Maxwell moves with her mother to a small suburban town, it doesn't take long before rumors of a local legend summon an urge to investigate. Unbeknownst to everyone, including those closest to her, Chloe has a secret: she can see ghosts. For decades, stories of a former classmate haunting the halls of Apple Valley High School have circulated, scaring the squeamish and enticing the brave. The dead girl's soul is said to linger, making her presence known to those nearby. Unusual cold spots, flickering lights and the unexplained scent of roses have all been blamed on the spirit of Rose Marie Foster, whose activity has increased since Chloe's arrival. But it's just an urban legend, right? When Chloe comes face to face with the desperate specter, she sets out on a quest to release the entity, hoping she'll cross over to the other side. However, freeing the trapped spirit isn't as easy as it sounds, leaving Chloe to wonder if her clairvoyance is enough to help Rose move on, or will she put herself in danger of a fate worse than death?

Thirty-seven-year-old John Morgan's personal life is already in disarray when he receives a phone call that his brother and niece are dead. His relationship with his father is nearly nonexistent, he barely speaks to his sister, and he has no real friends to lean on. As the tragic news slowly begins to sink in, John realizes he is floating aimlessly in the middle of an unpredictable sea of emotions with no one to rescue him. In this compelling tale that movingly illustrates the devastating effects of a dysfunctional family, John must learn to change what he can, accept what he cannot, and make the difficult decision to leave some things behind. I'm excitedly working on a second novel. Thanks for checking out my work. PS: for those that wish to own my book it can be purchased in multiple formats and found on various major online distribution channels. Thank you!

ATTENTION READERS: THIS IS A SAMPLE of the first three chapters of this book. The book is now available in full on Amazon - Fixing You by Roya Carmen. Thank you for all the votes and wonderful feedback. A steamy NA contemporary romance set in Seattle. Librarian Kirsten Beals is bookish, serious, and a little set in her ways. Her neighbor, tech wiz Ethan Fox, is her polar opposite; charming, smooth and playful. And she absolutely cannot stand him. But when Kirsten's long-time boyfriend Logan dumps her cold, Kirsten and Ethan team up to show Logan just exactly what he'll be missing. As Ethan works to sexy-up Kirsten, he comes to see her in a completely new light, and realizes there's more to her than nerdy glasses. And as he teaches her the ways of seduction, Kirsten realizes Ethan also has a secret identity of his own, and might not quite be the arrogant immature womanizer she thought he was. Warning: this is an erotic romance and contains steamy sexual scenes. 18+ If you enjoy, please vote and comment. I would love to hear from you! :)

Who is Ms. Amnesia? Is she that girl who lost her memory? No, don't pity her. She's the girl who lost her past, her present. And maybe even her future. The girl who chose this, long ago. Maybe even knowing the consequences and sacrifices she made just to start all over. She lost her memories for a reason. No one knows why, not even her. All she knows that she has to start all over to see if she lost everything for nothing.
