Description

See Me, See Me Not is a gripping romantic thriller where childhood crush turns into a poignant teenage love story, all the while grappling with the haunting legacy of a cult and the search for the long-lost Mellie. One-click the second standalone novel in the hit YA romantic suspense "Fear and Love in Gavert City" series and immerse yourself in a thrilling book involving a mysterious cult, a missing person, and two teens grappling with their pasts while danger closes in around them. Six years ago, Tessa Gardner’s sister, Mellie, disappeared. Despite lingering guilt and the never ending desire to find her, seventeen-year-old Tessa works hard to keep it together. She's managing—just barely—to keep her grades up, and her part-time job helps with the bills. But when her childhood crush, Luke Simon, comes back to their small Texan town, Tessa's precariously balanced life threatens to shatter. Luke Simon, a shadow from her past, carries dark secrets of his own. Despite the warnings of a dubious psychic who insists Mellie is alive, Tessa is drawn to him. He offers understanding, shared smiles, and a connection she can't resist. Haunted by guilt and desperate to escape his past, Luke finds fleeting solace in meaningless flings. But Tessa isn't just another girl. Her kindness, resilience, and captivating smile make her the only girl who's ever truly mattered to him. Yet, Luke fears the truth of his past might send Tessa running—or worse. As Tessa and Luke struggle to live in the present, their pasts lurk in the shadows—more intertwined than they ever realized. They must confront their shared history before it's too late to save Mellie and themselves. Embark on this captivating journey of "Love and Fear in Gavert City," perfect for fans of engrossing mysteries and powerful romances. With secrets that are more dangerous than present threats, this suspenseful romance explores the depths of guilt, the desperation of hope, and the relentless grip of the past. Don't miss the gripping second installment of the "Love and Fear in Gavert City" series—a tale of overcoming trauma in a small-town mystery setting. A note from the author, Elodie Nowodazkij: This book, oh this book, broke my heart in more ways than one. Researching cults, reading about ways cults operate and the devastation they cause, really opened my eyes to a world I hadn't fully understood before. It added an unexpected depth to "See Me, See Me Not," and it allowed me to delve into characters who had endured profound hardship. Tessa and Luke, ah, these characters. I fell head over heels for their resilient spirits and their captivating stories. The intricate childhood bond they shared, one that blossomed into a complex and intense teenage love, was fascinating to write. I was invested in their struggles, their triumphs, and most importantly, their unwavering support for each other in the face of overwhelming adversity. As they unravel the web of secrets surrounding Mellie's disappearance and navigate their feelings for each other, they grapple with the shadows of their past—a past marked by trauma, guilt, and the lingering effects of the cult. I wanted to capture not just the suspense of the unfolding mystery, but also the resilience of the human spirit, the complexities of small-town life, and the enduring power of love. I sincerely hope that as you dive into "See Me, See Me Not" and explore Tessa and Luke's journey, you'll find yourself as invested in their story as I was writing them. This YA romantic suspense novel is much more than a gripping cult mystery—it's a testament to the strength of love and friendship in the face of unthinkable adversity. For fans of thrilling YA romantic suspense, tales of overcoming trauma, captivating childhood crush stories, and engaging small-town mysteries, "See Me, See Me Not" holds a special place. Enjoy the emotional rollercoaster, uncover the hidden secrets, and lose yourself in a world where love and fear intermingle, shaping the lives of Tessa, Luke, and everyone in Gavert City. Remember, each story we share and each book we read brings us a little closer to understanding the world and each other. Enjoy the ride. With all my love, Elodie Nowodazkij.
