I am so excited to welcome debut author Natalie Richards to the warm waters of our lagoon. Her YA thriller, SIX MONTHS LATER, released earlier this week, and it’s one of those books that stays with you for a long time.
Here’s the blurb:
She Has Everything She Ever Wanted. But Not Her Memory…
When Chloe fell asleep in study hall, it was the middle of May. When she wakes up, snow is on the ground and she can’t remember the last six months of her life.
Before, she’d been a mediocre student. Now, she’s on track for valedictorian and being recruited by Ivy League schools. Before, she never had a chance with super jock Blake. Now he’s her boyfriend. Before, she and Maggie were inseparable. Now her best friend won’t speak to her.
What happened to her? Remembering the truth could be more dangerous than she knows…
Sounds amazing, doesn’t it? You know what else is amazing? The hero of this book, Adam. Ah, Adam. I am kinda (okay, totally) smitten with this boy, so I asked Natalie to give us a little more insight into his character. She was kind enough to share with us some of Chloe’s thoughts:
Shh…we’re sneaking up the stairs, and Adam’s apartment is…Holy Cramped Spaces. Have to be quiet, too, because his grandma isn’t the type to invite me in for milk and cookies. Let’s twist open the door and….whoa, what do you know? Adam is a neat freak. Capital N to the K, people. I could bounce a quarter off his bed. If I could stop thinking about the fact that he sleeps here.
Ahem…anyway…
Okay, so his iPod is beside his bed, the earbuds perfectly coiled beside it. Maybe we’ll just take a quick little look at his first playlist.
Hm, wonder if he thinks of Piper when he listens to some of these.
