TRUE
COLORS BLURB:
Caitlyn Davis always cruised through life, not being
the type to ruffle feathers or involve herself in high school drama…until a
chance encounter with a strange, homeless man changes everything.
Suddenly, Caitlyn has the ability to see behind
people’s masks. She discovers that her life isn’t as simple as she imagined and
her high school is filled with secrets…some very sinister ones.
Unable to ignore her new gift, Caitlyn embarks on a mission to learn why one of her friends now appears terrified, but masks her fear behind a bright, smiling veneer. Will Caitlyn’s new ability lead her into hot water? Or is her new found vision a blessing that will expose her friends’ true colors?
Her quest will lead Caitlyn to lose friends, stand up for those in need, and even find love.
At Palisades High School every face tells a story…

EXCERPT
As a
thank you, I took Eric out to dinner. He wasn’t happy at all about me paying,
but I could be stubborn when I wanted to be. He then told me the only place he
wanted to eat was In-N-Out Burger. I thought that was a lie and he was just
trying to save me spending too much on him, but he was telling the truth. So we
sat at In-N-Out Burger dining on fries animal style and juicy, beef burgers.
I slurped
up the last of my vanilla shake, making a ridiculous noise. Biting my lips
together, I pushed the cup away from me, willing my cheeks not to turn red yet
again.
Eric
grinned. “So, you feeling better?” He wiped his hands on a napkin and balled it
up.
“Definitely.
Thank you.”
He shook
his head. “You can really stop saying that now. I think you’re up to about
forty thank yous. It’s getting kind of old.”
My nose
wrinkled and I rubbed a hand over my face. He just laughed at me, but when I
looked up, his smile was missing. His serious expression made me swallow.
Dropping
the balled up napkin, he reached for me, drawing soft patterns over the back of
my hand with his forefinger. “Caity, can you promise me something?”
“Sure.”
With that voice, I’d promise him anything.
“Now that
you know how to control it, don’t read me.”
My
insides clenched. This was why I didn’t want to tell people. They wouldn’t be
themselves around me if they knew... I went to pull my hand away, but he
grabbed it before I could.
“I’ll
always tell you the truth, I promise. So don’t read me, okay? I want us to be
ourselves around each other and if I think you might be reading me then I know
I'm gonna act weird. I feel privileged that you've told me this stuff and I
don't want you to ever worry that I'll hide anything from you, so you don't
have to worry about reading me. Does that make sense?" His warm, hazel
eyes flickered with bashful concern and I had to nod.
"It
might still happen without me meaning to, but I'll trust you, Eric. I
promise."
He met my
shaky smile with a beaming one of his own. I didn’t even have to read him right
now. What he was showing me was pure honesty and my insides buzzed with that
euphoric giddiness I always got when I was around him. Except now, it was
running on overdrive.
