My hubby and I bought her series at a book con last year because they looked good. I finished it in one day, this grabbed my interest and I couldn&#8217;t put it down. I love a good ghost\/mystery and is it. Exciting and shocking when I got to the last couple chapters. This is definitely a great read, now I&#8217;m going to see what she does in the next book.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/about-the-author.png\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6153\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/about-the-author.png?resize=231%2C55\" alt=\"\" width=\"231\" height=\"55\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Well, I&#8217;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&#8217;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.<\/p>\n<p>Growing up in a small town, I learned a lot of values and morals, I also learned parents have spies everywhere and there&#8217;s always someone to tell your mama on you. So when you get grounded, what is there left to do? Read! My Aunt Jo gave me my first real romance novel. It was a romance titled &#8220;Lord Margrave&#8217;s Deception.&#8221; I remember it fondly. But I also learned I had a deep and abiding love of mysteries and anything paranormal. As I grew up, I started to write just that and would entertain my friends with stories featuring them as main characters.<\/p>\n<p>Now, I live Huntersville, NC where I entertain my family 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&#8230;lol.<\/p>\n<p>I love books, I love writing books, and I love entertaining people with my silly stories.<\/p>\n<p>You can reach me at any of these places:<br \/>\nBlog:\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/apryl-baker.blogspot.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">http:\/\/apryl-baker.blogspot.com\/<\/a><br \/>\nTwitter:@AprylBaker<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>herry blossom lipstick: check Smokey eyes: check Skinny jeans: check Dead kid in the mirror: check For sixteen year old Mattie Hathaway, this is her normal everyday routine.
