Letters from Lily

by C.E. Corrales

What once gave me nightmares now gave me lustful dreams. I thought maybe it was just my curiosity at first, but now I was beginning to think there was a deeper desire. Something inside of me didn’t just want to know more about the picture.

Something told me I wanted to partake…

With only a few weeks left of senior year, Zach can’t wait to be out of high school. He’s never been part of a clique, had a girlfriend, or felt accepted.

What Zach didn’t know is that each mysterious letter depicted the image of an impending murder. With every new drawing, Zach discovers dark secrets within himself. How long can he hide from the truth before he’s caught red-handed?

I honestly can't believe that this is the only book published by this author... to say the least, the story was fantastic. It's the type of story that really pulls you in and doesn't let you go. The mystery is incredible, the writing style clutches your very soul, and the suspense... unreal. I wanted to try reading a story from a new author for a change, and this writer is seriously astounding. If you're lazing on the sofa looking for a heart-pounding story that'll bring you to the edge of your couch cushions, this is it. Really looking forward to more releases from C.E. Corrales and Michael Jaymes.

This book was so good that I didn't want to put it down! The story was not what I expected at all. There were so many twists and turns throughout. I mostly finished this book in one day because the suspense kept me going until the very end. This book is definitely for more mature audiences but I still recommend it to lovers of mystery, horror, and suspense.
