HOLIDAY CHICK by Amber L. Carter (paperback)

All Aden Callen wants is a life that means something. And she almost has it, until an unexpected letter arrives, forcing her to face her troubled past and leave her hard-won happiness at camp for the sleepy northern logging town of Holden.

The new girl in a small town, Aden becomes the reluctant center of attention for the local young, restless, and bored. Among them is bumbling and awkward Derek, who's not as clueless as he seems; Cory, cocky, charming, and entirely ruthless; the mysterious and beautiful Tory; and Jason, intense and eager for the bright spark in a dead-end town.

Struggling to reconcile the painful relationship she has with her family amidst a shattered heart, Aden soon finds herself giving in to the sway of distraction the local scene holds. Yet when her new-found notoriety swirls into dangerous consequences, Aden must fight to keep from losing herself - and the future she wants more than anything - before Holden swallows her whole.

HOLIDAY CHICK is an absorbing tale of the lure of misspent youth, freedom and futures, and that ferocious time in life when anything can happen.
