Touch #2

TOUCH:
Deadly Little Lies
by Laurie Faria Stolarz

Untouchable!


Ben has been out of Canelia's life for the past few months but he has never been far from her thoughts. However, along with her broken heart Camilia has been dealing with some very strange occurrences. This has led Camelia to wonder if it is at all possible that Ben's gift of psychometry could of been somehow transferred to herself, the alternative being that she going crazy. But at this point she is not sure which is worse.

Finally Ben has returned and Camelia could not be more happier, even if others are less then pleased to see him. But things between Ben and Camelia do not go smoothly and while Ben is doing his best to keep his distance from Camelia, someone else is doing there best to get her attention. The notes have started again, along with the phone calls. Camelia is assured that Matt is far away and to her dismay it is looking more and more likely that Ben is responsible.

Deadly Little Lies is a pacey mystery that mixes the paranormal with romance and dangerous stalkers. Camelia's story of broken hearts, new romances, creepy death threats and voices that exist only in her head, is bisected with the diary entries of an aunt who all believe crazy but who has more in common with Camelia than anyone would believe. This second Touch story is just as thrilling as the first and equally as impossible to put down.

Touch #1

TOUCH:
Deadly Little Secret
by Laurie Faria Stolarz

One Touch And He Just Knew!


Camelia has had her share of experience with school rumours, and knowing just how 'truthful' they can be she is happy to ignore them when it comes to Ben the new guy at school, especially when that guy saved her life, not to mention left her thinking of little else but his touch ever since.

As the rumours escalate so to does the danger for Camelia, but as the danger grows Camelia finds her world closing in about her, her parents are preoccupied and her friends never seem to be around. Only Ben seems to be there when she need someone, but is his presence saving her from danger or bringer her closer to it. Everyone has their secrets; some are just more deadly then others.

Deadly Little Secret is not your average stalker thriller; it is also a story of unrequited love with a twist of the paranormal. Despite the fact that just about every boy in this book seems to have a crush on Camelia it is thrillingly mysterious and impossible to put down. I can't wait to lay my hands on book 2.
