CRIMINAL MINDS meets Hollywood
Cassandra "CassieNova" Sanchez is a world renowned actor, and she hates it. A life of glitz and glamour has never been her interest, but that never stops her agent from booking her jobs. With all the fame and fortune that has been forced upon her, Cassie has a dark secret. One that could not only get her blacklisted from Hollywood but also get her arrested.
Cassie is the daughter of the nation's most prolific serial killer, Cameron Jacobs- also known as the Mutilator.
When a new killer begins to terrorize the streets of Los Angeles using her father's tactics, Cassie is forced to work with FBI Agent Jeremiah Winchester- whose young age makes him have something to prove.
With dark secrets of Cassie's past slowly being revealed, the superstar has to consider how much of the past she truly knows- and if she is willing to learn the truth of what really went on in her childhood.

I can't keep the smile off my face as I take my seat on the plane. I slide my bag under the seat and lean back. I close my eyes and let a blissful smile grace my face. He said I wouldn't be able to run. As if. I'm vaguely aware of someone taking the seat next to mine, but I pay no attention to said person. "So where we headed?" I choke on my own spit as my eyes fly open and whirl around to face the owner of the familiar voice. His eyes are hidden behind those damn sunglasses and a rather smug smile graces his face. I continue choking and he does nothing other than flip through a magazine. That smug smile never leaving his face. "You still haven't answered the question." "To hell." I finally manage to choke out. "Awesome," He flips a page in the magazine, "It's about time I returned home. You know, bodies to burn, lost souls to torture, I've missed it. It'll be fun." *** Nicolette Moore.
