Bio
Casse
Narome is the alter-ego of a self-proclaimed awesome weirdo who spent her
childhood reading and daydreaming. As an adult that is also how she spends her
time only now she writes her daydreams down for everyone to read. Casse is
never serious, has been accused of wishing her life was a sitcom, laugh track
and all, has a bad habit of talking out loud to herself and she is fine with
being a little insane.
She spends
way too much time online, too much money buying books and laughing at her own
jokes. You will find her on Twitter being very random and spewing her opinions.
When you see her online, tell her to get back to her writing! Or just engage
her in a hilarious random conversation.

Excerpt
Bonnie folded her arms and glared at
me. Akila looked back and forth between us, obvious concern creasing her
forehead.
“Do you want me to talk to her?” she
whispered, as she stood at my side and kicked at the fallen leaves. She was
having as much fun with them as a kid would.
“I don‘t think it would help. She
knows the entire situation, and she still doesn‘t see it my way.”
“Have you tried your hardest, or did
you flash her that smile of yours and give up when she didn‘t drool over it?”
“Kila, I—I am trying, but there hasn‘t
really been time.”
“Dylan, take the time. Even I can see
something is wrong, and that you aren‘t happy. Rage just pours from you, and
I‘m familiar with that kind of anger—trust me. Let it go, sweetheart, let it
go.”
“I can‘t. He took the one person I
loved from me,” I declared, through clinched teeth. I hated the one person I
couldn‘t make pay. The bastard was protected by being locked inside of me. I
would have to find comfort in the fact that I had finally gotten rid of him. Forever.
“She is right there.”
“She will be the first to tell you,
she isn‘t.” I walked away, but Akila stopped me with a hand on my shoulder,
turning me until I faced her.
“I know you are badass, Superman, but
you can‘t take on the world.”
“Not the world.”
She grinned. “Well, just remember you
have friends if you need them.”
“You, the ball buster?” I teased. She
was more of a brat than a ball buster.
“Yes me! Why won‘t anyone believe me?
Is it my looks?” She stomped her foot and totally made my point for me.
“Yeah! You are like a size zero. You
will break a bone if the wind blows.”
“Shut up!”
“Thank you, Akila.”
She nodded and pulled me into a hug.
“Anytime.”
Review:
I
love that this book brings history into the present by having the characters
having lived past lives. I especially
love Akila being so many beautiful women from history and how Dylan morphs into
his regal, arrogant self from the past.
While
I have read books that have nefarious agencies messing with kids, this is the
first one I have read with this particular premise and it is very well written
with continuity and seamlessness in the storyline. But I hated that it ended in the middle of a
storyline. So when book 2 is available
for review, please keep me in mind because I’m dying to know what happens
next. Seriously ending with [spoiler],
so not cool. That’s like when you
favorite show has “To be continued…” right at the critical plot point.
Still
I’m totally vested in these characters now and dying to find out what
happens. I’m worried about how things
work out for Dain and Tara/Bonnie and also Akila and Marco. I also hope there is more about their
historical characters because I love the history angle and facts. That adds a sense of reality to the story
which heightens the intensity.
I
give this story 4 out of 5 clouds (mostly because of the ending otherwise it
would get 5 out of 5).
