Creeping. We all do it. We creep our favorite bands, friends on social networks, and even our enemies on social networks. Although, some people take it to the extreme. Have you ever woke up in the middle of the night because you felt that someone was watching you? Well just remember to NOT look out your window.. that was my first mistake. I opened the curtain and instead of seeing my reflection looking back at me I saw a man's. He had the coldest, darkest, and scariest eyes I have ever seen. I closed the curtain and screamed my lungs out. That was only the beginning.

Sequel to The Psychic Next Door. Rachel Vaughn just wants to feel normal again. After narrowly escaping the wrath of the Beast (and its deranged master) returning to an ordinary life seems impossible, especially with her psychic boyfriend Luc around. It doesn't help that Rachel is tortured every night by nightmares... Nightmares that are beginning to bleed into her waking life. The appearance of a ghostly girl -- a girl only she can see -- threatens what's left of Rachel's delicate mind. It doesn't help that her boyfriend Luc thinks it's all in her head, a product of her past trauma and strained nerves. He's psychic after all; wouldn't he know? But as more and more apparitions begin to appear, Rachel begins to doubt Luc's word. These ghostly girls seem to want something from her. With no one on her side, Rachel is forced to go hunting for her own answers. Only, she might not like what she finds... As unsettling and twisted as the first book, The Psychic Within will drag you in and not let you go.

"Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as elaborate hairstyles and the wearing of gold jewelry or fine clothes. Rather, it should be of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God's sight." ~1 Peter 3:3-4 "Tu es belle, ma chère, tant à l'intérieur qu'à l'extérieur."
