Author's Note
Welcome to The Attic in Willowbrook Falls. This story has lived in my mind for a long time-an eerie tale wrapped in secrets, shadows, and the kind of quiet tension only a small town can hold. I wrote this with the hope that you'd feel the chill of the woods, the weight of unspoken truths, and the heartbeat of a mystery that refuses to stay buried.
I'll be releasing new chapters every Tuesday, so if you enjoy suspense, dark secrets, and slow-burning twists, make sure to check back weekly. I'd love to hear your thoughts, theories, and reactions as the story unfolds.
Thank you for reading and joining me on this journey into the dark corners of Willowbrook Falls.

White Lies (Book 1)
Jesabel is a liar. When her only friend mysteriously disappears, she does what comes naturally. She keeps her truth from the world. Without warning, she is thrown into a web of lies far more dangerous and lethal than anything she could imagine. With an annoyingly charming boy by her side, can she unravel what she refuses to tell - the truth? WHITE LIES HAS BEEN REVISED, EDITED AND REWORKED! Happy late new year, friends! I'd like to take this opportunity to announce that White Lies, a story that has been up and running on Wattpad since 2011, has been re-written and revised for the coming decade. What does this mean? This entails the same characters you know and love, with better flow, better writing, more nuanced character development, more mature content, and entirely different plot lines. Jesabel's character has changed drastically since I last introduced her to the world (nearly NINE years ago! yikes!), and I wanted to make this story a more nuanced and modern take. When I had written White Lies, I had been just 14 years old. And I've done a ton of growing, learning, and unlearning over the years. This means that my characters have grown and developed with me. If you are an old friend and re-reader - welcome, and please enjoy the same old story you love with a brand new take! If you have started along this White Lies journey beginning in December and all throughout January, you might have read a half-edited and half-original version of the story. So please feel free to re-read at your leisure! I won't bite, I promise.Complete
