Top Secret…

I just sent my manuscript off to all my beta test readers…

Dramatic pause…crickets chirping in the distance…as I bit my nails

This for me is always the hard part. Even though I’ve had great response with my first round of beta readers (click HERE to see what they said about my novel) I will never get over that nervous feeling of will they like it? What if they hate it? Maybe I should have worked on it longer… Etc., Etc.

So for now this is me…

“This story is unique and interesting in many ways. It is energetic and unpredictable, I found the pages turning faster as I followed Breanna’s unfolding life.Ā Everyone must learn to balance responsibilities and desires and this book reminds us of the choices we make everyday that guide our lives.Ā The plot is very intricate and takes some unusual turns that readers will not have seen before.Ā Ā A well-written story that young adults will love! This book was full of energy andĀ well-developed characters,Ā it goes quickly and will leave eagerly awaiting the next installment.Ā Highly recommended!”

“I have just had the opportunity to preview the book that Jaime Guerard is about to publishā€¦WOW!Ā  I was so impressed with her ability to tell a story.Ā  Her writing style keeps you intrigued and certainly keeps you guessing.Ā  There is no predictability in the story line. Throughout the book, she constantly introduces new elements, with twists and turns.Ā  Good luck trying to figure out where she is going with the story.Ā  You will find out only when she wants you to know.

This is a book that will not only be enjoyed by young people, but people of every age.Ā  I canā€™t tell you how much I loved this book.Ā  I anxiously await the sequel!”

TinaTina:

“It is rare for me to find a book that I canā€™t put down.Ā  Jaime’s novel has been a great read; exciting, even frightening at times, but also innocent and sincere.Ā  The story weaves together perfectly always leaving me wonderingā€¦ what will happen next?”
