"The Only One Who Saves Me" is a debut novel that follows two twenty-somethings as they navigate the pitfalls of modern life (and ghosts of the past).
Set along the picturesque shores of O'ahu, Hawaii, Morgan and Ember are both trying to make their way in the world and find their place in it. Each character is haunted by tragedies of the past and an uncertain future, but it isn't just hardship that eventually brings them together. Through a chance meeting, they find in one another a kindred spirit, and, it's a shared passion for music (not personal tragedy) that ultimately breaks through the barriers that each has lived comfortably numb behind. Almost as soon as it begins, however, old wounds threaten to destroy their budding romance, as secrets, lies, and self-sabotage undermine them at every turn.
Told from the unique perspective of both characters, readers accompany the pair on a journey of sacrifice and self-discovery, as they come to realize that, if you peel back the veneer of sunshine and rainbows, even paradise has a dark side.
Marley Taylor, Rorie Ford, and Amber Pattison think they're in for the time of their life. They're taking a celebratory vacation to Hawaii with all of their classmates, meaning both all their closest friends...and worst enemies. However, things take a turn for the worse, and they find themselves in the midst of a mysterious series of events. It soon sets in that their lives will never again be the same...and that they may not even live to see the next day in their lives.
