For the last nine years, Alexandria Reed has been locked away, a prisoner of her own nightmares. Determined to escape, she convinced the doctors she was sane. It wasn’t even that hard really. She leaves behind her fears and joins her family in their new home, Jacob’s Fork, West Virginia, where she plans out her nice, normal life.
Blurb:
Since stabbing her
brother, Alexandria Reed has lived at Compton Academy, a mental institute
disguised as a school. But it wasn’t her fault…was it? Her night terrors had
become as real to her as breathing, and she could no longer distinguish reality
from her nightmares.
After a long road,
her doctor has declared her well enough to leave Compton and rejoin her family
in the outside world, but she's worried she won't be able to handle it. Turns
out she’s right, and the monsters are back. The sights and sounds of the
horrific creatures snarling and snapping cause her to regress. To hurt people.
She's strapped down
to a bed again, the victim of her own insanity. With the help of Dr. Marcel,
she's hopeful she can once again put the nightmares to rest.
Only things aren't
as they seem. There's something off about the doctor, and she’s having strange
dreams—even stranger than the monsters that haunt her. Dreams of a reality
where she’s happy and content, but also full of magic and danger.
In the end, she will
have to choose one reality over another.
But where does she
belong? In the safe, normal reality—or the one that calls to her insanity?
So who am I?
Well, I’m the crazy girl with an imagination that never shuts up. I LOVE scary movies. My friends laugh at me when I scare myself watching them and tell me to stop watching them, but who doesn’t love to get scared? I grew up in a small town nestled in the southern mountains of West Virginia where I spent days roaming around in the woods, climbing trees, and causing general mayhem. Nights I would stay up reading Nancy Drew by flashlight under the covers until my parents yelled at me to go to sleep.
Now, I live in a small town in West Virginia where I entertain my niece and nephew and watch the cats get teased by the birds and laugh myself silly when they swoop down and then dive back up just out of reach. The cats start yelling something fierce…lol.
I love books, I love writing books, and I love entertaining people with my silly stories.
