Check out an excerpt on this fun new series as it kicks off -- right in time for Christmas (*ahem* good stocking stuffer *ahem*)
Grab an excerpt below!
Book One of the October Series kicks off with Catch and Todd Thornwacker taking on their first ghost hunting adventure!
Aided by friends Sully Chambers and Naomi Prentiss, the foursome quickly realize they may have bitten off more than they can chew inside the former residence of an infamous murderer.
Teen angst, unrequited love, and ghostly bites await the team in OCTOBER SYNDROME!
“Can you tell what they’re
talking about?” Todd had finished off his M&Ms and trail mix and was
starting on a bag of Twizzlers. How he kept so skinny and ate so much was a
mystery.
“Maybe
they’re getting cold feet. Sully looked a little freaked, right?”
Todd
shrugged. “I hadn’t noticed. Then again, I have
noticed you’ve barely taken your eyes off of her.”
“What?”
“You
can deny it all you want, Captain Denial, but you’ve been making googly eyes at
her all night.”
Catch
scoffed. “Googly eyes? She’s fifteen, Todd. I’m seventeen—”
“Is
two years so much?”
Catch
couldn’t believe this conversation was happening. “Toddy, do me a favor and
butt out of my love life.”
“What
love life?” Catch smacked him on the back of the head. “Come on, what serious
girlfriend have you had, like, ever?”
“For
your information, Sandy Bayless drew a picture of me once.”
“Sandy
Bayless drew a picture of you? Why?”
Catch’s
frustration was building. He rubbed his face and grumbled.
“Why’d
she draw a picture of you, Jonah?”
“Maybe
she dug me.” Though saying it out loud suddenly seemed absurd. Sandy Bayless
was homecoming queen. And she had been tied to the hip with the quarterback of
the football team since freshman year.
“It’s
not easy being a Thornwacker, is it? Even if you’re a wrestling star.”
Catch
recalled the times he was teased in school for his parents’…hobby. The yelling,
the name-calling. The word freak had
followed him until he joined the wrestling team in junior high—and won. Every.
Single. Match.
That’s
where he and Todd differed. Todd embraced being an outcast. He embraced all the
weirdness that went along with being Mary and Sebastian’s Thornwacker offspring.
Catch preferred being the normal guy…who happened to chase the paranormal at
night.
