Secrets

by E.H. Demeter, Lyndsey Rose Harper (Editor)

Juliet Adams is twenty-four and more normal than an Oregon thunderstorm. Working as a nurse at Rose Village Assisted Living allows her to live vicariously through the past adventures of one of her patients. Still, she longs for her own adventures, and she thinks she’ll find them when she marries the love of her life. However, when her fiancé dumps her six months before the wedding, she is crushed. She’s always felt like a failure – the self-dubbed black sheep of her family, even – so the breakup is another failure on a very long list. Broken-hearted and in dire need of support, Juliet gives into her sister’s attempts to bond and agrees to spend a week on the coast. Still, Juliet can’t seem to escape the reminders of her loneliness despite the joy surrounding her. Pained and desperate for solace, she flees and finds a mysterious glowing cave, where an equally mysterious man is, naked and injured. This chance encounter with the undeniably magnetic Marsh Darrow sends her on a whirlwind adventure, filled with myth, legend, and paranormal creatures. As her idea of normal falls apart, Juliet discovers an inner courage that shows her she is truly more than she ever dreamed — the prophetic key to a war that centers around centuries-old secrets.

About the author

E.H. Demeter was born in Oregon City, Oregon, though she now makes her home in South Carolina, with her husband and two children, where she can be found to hate the heat and love the rain.

The written word has been a draw since her early years, and she is seldom found without a notebook in hand. Writing is her passion, and her goal is to share her words, thoughts, and opinions with the world. She is a lover of books, hot tea, and sweets – much to the dismay of her waistline.

She grew up reading fantasy and romance novels, and finds that is where most of her inspiration lies, though her love of the young adult genre has also sparked creative fires.

She currently has four publications available. She can be found on social media ( Links provided on the stay connected page), and encourages readers to reach out to her.

A cute story

This was a cute, quick read. Predictable, but sweet, I would have liked more explanations at the end. I did find the MMC swoonworthy.
