**Third 'Dear Sydney' book, but can also be read as a standalone novel** Cory and Erin Hall, sisters one year apart who switched back and forth between being best friends and worst enemies, would do anything for each other. Including stalking the other one's boyfriend to find out if he's cheating. When Cory's boyfriend catches Erin watching him on Cory's order, he ends their relationship and Cory is left heartbroken. She confides in her mother, who then confides in Cory's father, and the two try to help out by suggesting a new learning tool to their daughter's History teacher: a pen pal project. Cory's pen pal doesn't seem capable of having an interest in her, but Erin's might just. Through the pen pal project, tempers flare, relationships are tested, and an anonymous letter-writer manages to poke their way into the girls' lives. Follow along on the journey of two sisters who try their hardest to get through the school year without losing anyone close to them, and maybe with gaining a love...or two.

(Sequel to Watty Award Winner "Dear Sydney") College isn't for everyone. Sometimes school is meant to end after the twelveth grade. So when Sydney Porter decided to leave James Madison University after her sophomore year, her boyfriend of two years did what any good boyfriend would do: he encouraged her to follow her dreams. So Sydney followed her dreams of becoming a concert violinist...all the way to New York City. 350 miles is less than 3,000, but it's still a ways away. And what better to do during long-distance relationships...than write letters? Yet success in a career sometimes means leaving behind people who used to mean the world to you...and sometimes letters become addressed to whoever will receive them, instead of to the person they'd been written to for years. Because, as much as we don't want them to... Every letter has to end. **And naturally, it's written in Dear Sydney's signature style...so don't worry.** First official chapter published: April 24th, 2017 Highest Rank: #77 in Teen Fiction on 9/7/17 Cover by @Queen_InTheWild

Raven Zheng is definitely not crazy. At least - that's what she tells herself. It's hard to believe that when no one else can see what you see. You see, Raven can see the dead. Ghosts, if you will. They're people who died, just looking for closure and a way to move on from this life. When Raven meets Cade Woods, she's surprised to find a person who understand what she's going through, at least a little bit. He doesn't see the dead, per se, but he's seen enough death in his life to see her point of view. And then the first body is found. Soon enough, Raven is catapulted into Cade's world. There seems to be a serial killer in town, one who has connections to Cade and his father that makes him a suspect in the murders, and Raven has no way to know whether or not he can be trusted at all, given his past and his suspicious parentage. But as the body count climbs, Raven and Cade realize that they might be the only ones with the knowledge to stop the killer, even if they have to embrace their past to do it.
