Saving Casey
by Liza O’Connor
Blurb
Having
been diagnosed with cancer, Cass Goldman decides to opt out of any futile
medical care and end her life. While she has some thoughts on afterlife, she
never expects to reincarnate into the body of a seventeen-year-old girl named
Casey Davidson.
When
she awakens in a hospital, Cass discovers two disturbing facts: One, she is now
inside the body of a troubled teenager, and two, the former owner of this body
committed suicide, but only Cass knows that. Everyone else believes Casey has
survived, but suffered a complete memory loss. Cass has two choices: to take on
Casey’s life and turn it around, or to confess the truth about her
reincarnation and end up in a mental asylum. Given this second chance to life,
Cass decides to take on the future life of Casey—the frightening ghoul-faced
teen with short, black, spiky hair.
Every
person around Cass has an ulterior motive and discovering the truth of Old
Casey’s life is more complicated than the “new math” she is forced to learn in
school. In addition, Cass has to contend with raging teenage hormones and the
prior crimes of Old Casey, which she might not remember, but everyone else
certainly does. However, her biggest frustration concerns her feelings for her
father’s rugged security specialist who sees her only as a teenager and doesn’t
want to explore the mutual attraction between them.
As
determined as Cass is to turn this life around, Old Casey’s enemies are just as
determined to end her life. She has no idea whom she can trust, but she knows
she’ll never survive going it alone.
Excerpt
Upon settling down on the toilet, Cass noticed the floor to
ceiling mirror facing her and screamed at the sight of the creature within it.
Short black hair spouted about its head, black circles surrounded both eyes and
fell like triangular knives down the cheeks. Black lips, stretched in horror as
if in a nightmare. Pulling up her pants, she moved closer to the mirror.
She was a ghoul, an honest to God ghoul!
The door crashed open and her father stared at her, fear
and panic clear in his eyes.
She touched her face. “Please tell me these aren’t
permanent.”
His panic remained a second longer as her words filtered
into his brain and then he pulled her into his arms. “Don’t worry, we will get
them removed—if you want to…”
“If? Oh, I definitely want them removed,” she said.
How can I turn around my
life if I look like the walking dead from a low-grade monster movie?
