Carter Daniels is a typical runaway. Unsure of who he is or
where he’s going, Carter is only sure of one thing: his past is going to stay
in the past. But when he gets pulled into the popular crowd at Silver Valley
High School, he’s forced to choose: tell the truth about who he is or lie. Lie.
And it seems to be working. His parents wanted to get him that cheap apartment
because they’re never home. He crashed his car so he doesn’t have one. His
weekends are filled because he has to spend time with his parents. But when
Carter is forced to open up to an outsider because of an English assignment,
everything changes. There is something he sees in her, an undeniable
connection. There is a need to discover what lies behind those sad eyes. But
will Carter be able to lower his defenses in order to get past hers? Will he
let her in, or will he choose to stay broken?

Hi there! I’m Jamie Loeak, YA author of the Chronicles of Light and
Darkness, The Outsiders Series, the Atlantis Novella Series, and The Star
Caster: a novella. Wow! That sounds like a lot for a girl that spent most of
high school and college starting – and never finishing! – things. It all
started with songs and poetry but the never-finishing part soon transferred to
books.

Caster: a novella. Wow! That sounds like a lot for a girl that spent most of

books.
It wasn’t until I started writing Body and Soul, the first book in the
Chronicles of Light and Darkness, and my debut book, that I actually finished
something. I blame/thank my parents for leaving me to dog sit on their vacation
– they left me with a Jeep but I can’t drive stick, so I was literally
stranded! However, I managed to finish a book I had been dreaming of for quite
a while. So, in all reality, they are the reason that I even began writing.

Other than the story of my beginning, I’ll tell you a few things about
myself. I was a special education teacher and now work in compliance (making
sure that all aspects of a special education child’s education is legal). My
hobbies include: writing – duh! – playing guitar, reading Jane Austen, browsing
bookstores, trying to cook and bake, and photography. At night, when I’m
falling asleep, I tend to come up with plans for world domination – and not my
world domination, but a world where all people are good and do the right thing…
I swear, it’ll all happen one day!!!

Five Fun Facts:
- I’m obsessed with my cat, Charlie.

way! (you can see recipes on my blog cottoncreative.blogspot.com) - I live in sunny Florida.
- I’m a neat freak and clean at least
every other day. - My sister is on the cover of The Star
Caster and I took the photo!
