“A little PTSD is expected after all you’ve been through. I gave your prescription to your parents. It’s something to help calm your nerves, and I have recommended that you see a shrink. Your shrink will help you with a mixture of therapy and the right medication.”
“I don’t want to be medicated,” I say. Though, maybe I do. I just want to feel nothing.
“Eventually you won’t have to be,” he promises. “I’m going to get your release papers signed, and you should be out of here in the next hour.”
“Thank you,” I tell him.
Once he leaves the room, I look around my room. It’s full of flowers. On the table next to me, there is a beautiful bouquet of purple roses. I tug on the note, assuming they’re either from Gabriel or Ty, but they’re not.
You only think you’re safe. I’ll get you next time, bitch.
I drop the note in terror as I look around the room. Nothing else seems out of place, and it looks the same way it did before I went to sleep. I think, anyway.
I should tell somebody. I should show my dad this note.
But what if he won’t let me go see Mom because of it?
I take the note and stuff it inside my pocket. It’ll be my little secret, for now.
The end.
Look for Book 2, I Hate Goodbye, coming Fall 2013!

Less than one year ago, I was miserable. I was working at a terrible job that I hated. I had Don’t Tell written, and I thought why not give it a chance? So I self-published it. Now, I am releasing my FIFTH book. I am living my dream. I never thought that this was possible. But it IS! And it’s because of YOU, my readers, that THIS is possible. I have the best job in the world. Thank you for all your emails, Facebook messages, comments, and Tweets! I LOVE every single message I get. I’m not kidding, every time I get them my day is INSTANTLY brighter. And thank you to everybody who has taken the time to review my books. You ROCK.
Next, I would like to thank my BFF, Tess. Thank you for beta reading all of my books. Thank you for hosting my blog tours, cover reveals, release blitz, giveaways, and everything else! Thank you for hosting ME every summer ;). Thank you for just being an awesome friend. Seriously, I don’t think I could have done this without you. I’m so grateful that the Internet brought us together! OH, and everybody can thank Tess for the pool boy scene. She demanded it. ;)
TO ALL THE AMAZING BOOK BLOGGERS IN THE WORLD: I LOVE YOU! Seriously, I can’t thank you enough for what you do. It’s because of you that indie authors are where we are today. And it’s because of you that I get to live out this crazy dream. Thank you.
To Holly Paola, my AMAZING new beta reader. Thank you for a fresh set of eyes, and a new perspective on Kihanna’s life. I appreciate you taking the time to read my book. And thank you for waiting, while I SLOWLY sent you one chapter at a time. Also, thank you Alaina Keller for introducing us. <3
My husband, my number one supporter. You encouraged me to keep writing, and you believed in me when I didn’t even believe in myself. Thank you. Because without you, I’d probably still be working that miserable 9-5 job. Thank you for reading my books, and thank you for not waiting on the movie.
Laura Heritage — wow! You amaze me with your designs. Thank you for designing such a beautiful cover for this story. Also, thank you for editing on such short notice! I seriously heart you!
