When 18-year-old Regan accidentally kills her father,
she discovers some startling truths.
First, she has the power of mind control.
Second, she must use it for evil or else suffer one of two fates: insanity or
death. Her solution is

To atone for her sins, she vows to protect her classmates from The Three
Musketcheers, a vicious
gang of cheerleaders who use lies, brute force, and blackmail as weapons in
their quest to

own—one she has
trouble controlling—leaving her to question whether she can save them without
destroying
herself.

Excerpt:
I found a spot in the back corner of the room and hunkered down with crossed arms. I’d made it through my first day unscathed. Then in walked the dark-haired pretty boy, who, for some reason, didn’t seem to like me. Which was fine with me. He pulled a plastic bag out of the pocket of his unbuttoned, gray and black flannel shirt and tossed it on Mr. Clark’s desk. He smiled and said something in a deep, quiet voice, but I didn’t catch it. The teacher’s worn face lit up. Pretty boy stopped and surveyed all the empty spaces. He inhaled, his nostrils flaring, and exhaled for a long time before he strolled nonchalantly over to me. He swung the plastic chair around, its metal legs grating the floor, then straddled it. He stared at my profile, his gaze traveling slowly over me. It was as if I could physically feel his eyes caress my skin. The desire to reach up and brush the foreign feeling from my cheeks was strong. Instead, I concentrated on the paintings hanging above Mr. Clark’s desk. Abstracts. My favorite. I liked the way they invoked emotion without telling what it should be.
After a full minute of this discomfort, I tilted my
head toward him and said, “What?” The overpowering lights matted his bronze
skin, but it wasn’t unflattering. He looked like he’d been carved from stone.
His eyelashes were so thick and dark I couldn’t tell if he was wearing eyeliner
to go with his black nail polish or not. Tiny silver hoop earrings hung from
both his earlobes. His silence made me twitchy. I turned my chair so it was facing
him. I crossed my legs and folded my hands on my lap, mimicking my previous
therapist. “And Johnny? What do you think about this new girl? The one that
seems to irritate you?” I blinked my long eyelashes rapidly. He fiddled with a
polished arrowhead that hung from a braided leather rope around his neck. “It’s
Jude actually,” he said in a deep, smoky voice. I already knew that having had
four classes out of seven with him. All advanced placement classes and art.
Jude’s eyes were so black that, even in this bright light, I couldn’t
differentiate his pupils from his irises. He swiveled his head, trying to see
what was behind me, which was weird because the only thing there was a wall.
“And I think there’s something wrong with the new girl.”

What is your writing process like?
I like to say I’m a pantser (I write by the seat of my pants) with a plan. My inspiration often comes from dreams, but sometimes I steal ideas from my husband. He’s well aware I’m a thief, and he’s proud to claim his title of muse. Before I start writing a story, I know the beginning and the end. But how I get there is an off-road adventure into the unknown. This allows my story to grow without totally derailing my original plan. If I hit a dead end, I step away from the computer, and usually, when I least expect it, the path forward finds me.
