About Hushed:
He’s saved her. He’s loved her. He’s killed for her.
Eighteen-year-old Archer couldn’t protect
his best friend, Vivian, from what happened when they were kids, so
he’s never stopped trying to protect her from everything else. It
doesn’t matter that Vivian only uses him when hopping from one toxic
relationship to another—Archer is always there, waiting to be noticed.
Then along comes Evan, the only person
who’s ever cared about Archer without a single string attached. The
harder he falls for Evan, the more Archer sees Vivian for the
manipulative hot-mess she really is.
But Viv has her hooks in deep, and when
she finds out about the murders Archer’s committed and his relationship
with Evan, she threatens to turn him in if she doesn’t get what she
wants… And what she wants is Evan’s death, and for Archer to forfeit his
last chance at redemption.
Kelley was born and raised in central
California, where she still resides with her lovely wife, daughter, and
an abundance of pets. (Although she does fantasize about moving across
the globe to Ireland.) She has a fascination with bells, adores all
things furry – be them squeaky, barky, or meow-y – is a lover of video
games, manga and anime, and likes to pretend she’s a decent
photographer. Her life goal is to find a real unicorn. Or maybe a
mermaid.
Within young adult, she enjoys writing and
reading a variety of genres from contemporary with a unique twist,
psychological thrillers, paranormal/urban fantasy and horror. She loves
stories where character development takes center stage.This item will close on May 15, 2012, at 11:00 PM EST. Any bids placed after that time stamp will not be honored.
