About the author
Harley Turner
13 books6 followersI started seriously writing when my grandmother was diagnosed with breast cancer. I needed to find a way to escape the world I was living in, and for once, reading just wasn't cutting it.
I had a story running around in my head for years, and I had never bothered to put it on paper. Once I started writing, I couldn't stop. The First Love series was born.
Follow Marissa as she meets and falls in love with the older bad boy Chad in Summer Love. Watch their relationship grow. When Marissa goes home at the end of the summer, she doesn't know what to expect. In Autumn Goodbye, their relationship hits more than a few rocky patches.
Another new novel of mine, From the Corner of Her Eye, shows how Kylie deals with being "different" from other children her age. She sees ghosts and eventually learns to communicate with them. Can she uncover the truth about her boyfriend's brother's death? Can she make the visions stop so she can just be "normal?"
A new project of mine is Self Inflicted. Aurora is a part of a toxic relationship with Erik, but will she realize it before it's too late?

Solid book. Wished it was longer, but I understand it's the first in the series. Will be reading the next one for sure.
