Okay, so when your whole family die you don't run out and tell the world right?
So Harlow Cape keeps it wrapped up inside, not letting anyone feel sorry for her or give her any sympathy.
Moving to Chicago should have been a good thing. New start, where no one knows you as 'the girl who has no family'.
Just her, Harlow Cape:the mystery.
But things don't always go the way they were planned, and, because it's Harlow, things turn out, well, bad.
Having to stay with a stranger and get a job at a pizza place seems all that bad, until charming Chace winds his way into Harlow's life. Suddenly, she can forget it all and leave the past, in the past.
So why does she keep feeling she needs to tell Chace everything?
But what's hiding behind the pretty face of Chace?

Michael's Ghost Girl
This story is not getting the attention it deserves, so I am attempting to "re-brand" it. Maybe no one "gets" it. If you want to read about "Normal" teenagers, maybe this isn't for you, it's more complicated than that. It's about a teenager who doesn't fit it, but doesn't want to, who has the best two friends that anyone could have. Who watched his father lose his job in the Recession and then loses his home, and how he copes, especially when he learns that their new house is haunted and the ghost is in his room. Michael was an average kid, although he's always stood out. He was a school jock but also a skater whose long blond hair almost reaches his waist. When his parents lived in a house in a home owners association like all his other friends, life seemed normal. Then his father lost his job and suddenly those "friends" weren't there anymore--except for his two best friends, Short Round and Dewey. The three are skaters, good ones, who live for girls and their skateboards. They're also basically good kids who take pride in being different without paying attention to it. When Michael loses his home and his family has to move they have his back. And they are there for him when the ghost girl starts following him around. Mariah was murdered when she was just 15, her remains were never found, although no one but her and her ghost friend, Crazy Girl, know where their bodies are buried. The house Michael now lives in is the one where she lived with her family, and her old room is now his. She appears to him one night, trying to taunt him, but against her will she is falling in love with the boy who lives in her old room. Slowly the two begin to fall in love and Mariah tells him her story, and of the hidden danger that lies up the street from him.
