Book Title: Unraveling
Author: Micalea Smeltzer
Genre: New Adult
Blurb:
Katy Spencer’s life fell apart two years ago. Since then, she’s closed herself off. She’s a shell of the person she used to be. The only person she trusts is her best friend Rollo, but even he can’t keep the nightmares away. Then she meets Jared. He’s the first man she’s been around since the event that she’s not afraid of. He makes her heart race, not in fear, but in a fluttering that could become something meaningful.

Jared can tell that Katy is broken. He sees something in her eyes that he’s often seen reflected in his own.

Pain.

Fear.

Self-loathing.

Jared is determined to get to know her.

He wants to solve the mystery of Katy Spencer.

He will… unravel her.


   

 






I unlocked the car and was just about to climb in, when I heard, “Are you
stalking me or something?”
I jumped and turned. Jared was standing next to a bright blue Toyota FJ
Cruiser. He had put on a sleeveless gray top and was wiping sweat off his face
with a towel.
He raised a brow, waiting for my answer.
“Oh… um… my navigation system told me to park here…” Wait, what did I
just say? Oh dear God, I did not just say that.
He chuckled. “Ookay,”
he drew out the word. “But I wasn’t asking you
why you were parked here.”
My face colored in ten varying shades of red and pink.
“Although,” he leaned against his car, “that would’ve been my next
question.”
“Why are you parked here?” I asked, it was the first thing that popped into
my head and out of my mouth.
I really wanted to smack myself right about now; of all the questions I
could have asked hottiemchotpants,
that shouldn’t have been one of them.
He grabbed a bottle of water from a duffel bag in his trunk and took a long
drink before answering.
“My dad owns the place,” he said with a shrug.
“Dan is your dad?” I questioned. They looked nothing alike, so I was a bit
surprised.
Jared looked down at the ground and kicked a pebble with his tennis
shoe. “In all the ways that count,” he muttered under his breath. “So,” he said,
louder this time, “you never answered my first question.”
I rattled my brain for what he had asked.
“No, I’m not stalking you, promise.”
He put his hand over his heart. “I’m hurt, Katy. Here I thought you were
interested in me.”
“Yeah… um… no… I think I better just… go,” I backed against my car.
He chuckled, and the sound sent warm tingles down to my toes. It wasn’t
a feeling I was used to. “Katy, you’re a tough nut to crack, but I’m thoroughly
going to enjoy trying.”
