~ What's It About? ~
I’m in college with my best friends and far, far from home!
With my Scheuermann’s disease as the excuse, my father kept me locked up at home all through high school. Here in Deepsilver, I can finally be me, Pandora, so—
Why the hell should I hold back?
They accept our fake IDs at Smother, our local haunt. I’m the life of the party, everyone loves me—hell, I could get away with murder in this place! Drunk off my ass, I dance on the bar, and—
I’m on top of the world!
I need to get my shit together, though. If I don’t pull off good grades, my father won’t pay my tuition. There’s no way I’m moving back into his “fortress.”
At the bar, I set my eyes on a gorgeous stranger. My plans don’t involve him long term; one night should be enough. But Dominic is more than I bargained for. God, I’m so drawn to this man. My skin hums at his touch because—
He expels the shadows of my past and replaces my pain with desire.
Perfect Dominic. Beautiful, graduating, soon-to-move-on-with-his-life Dominic.
I’m a wild child. A hot mess. Not grownup and focused like him. He’s addictive, and I am weak, but—screw this; I can wean myself off him! With the right antidote—
Addictions can be broken.

Hi there! Thanks for having Pandora and me over
Oh goodness. I’ve been asked to say a couple of things about my favorite books turned movies and the snacks I love to pop into my mouth as I watch them. Let’s start with the easy stuff: Super-buttered-up popcorn and the biggest Diet Pepsi known to mankind will do it for me. I’m drooling just thinking about it. Then below, are some of my favorite books that have been made into movies. In general, though, I have to say—the books are better! Besides the number one, the rest are not ranked:
1) Romeo + Juliet (yep, the version with Leonardo DiCaprio and Claire Danes.) To the point of having the movie appear in my next novel out November 21st: Stargazer.
2) The Great Gatsby (of the same director, Baz Lurhman)
3) If I Stay
4) Gone Girl
5) The Notebook
6) The Time Traveler’s Wife
7) The Princess Bride
8) The Help
9) Eat Pray Love
10) The Lovely Bones
Also, I want to mention two movies coming up soon, I hope. They are of two of my favorite Young Adult books: Before I Fall by Lauren Oliver, and Shiver, by Maggie Stiefvater, as well as While It Lasts by Abbi Glines.

~ Meet The Author ~
I moved from Norway to the United States in 2001, and the first awesome five years I spent in the San Fernando Valley, Los Angeles. Then I read “The Book,” aka Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil, which spurred my husband and me to move cross country to beautiful Savannah, Georgia.
I’m currently on my seventh year in the Deep South, where I enjoy the heat and the humidity. Besides writing, I spend my time with our “petting zoo” as in an opinionated parrot, a herd of cats that are experts on keyboard shortcuts, and puppies that…uh, bark.
I hold a Master’s degree in languages, with concentrations within literature and linguistics. I taught at college level for a decade before settling in as a graduate adviser at the Savannah College of Art and Design.
Writing is my passion, my joy, and my addiction. When I’m not writing, I read.
Shattering Halos is my debut novel, and its standalone sequel, Stargazer, is due out later this year.
