Lay Me Down: Kellam High Book 1 (Ebook)

Reader's Favorite 5-star review
"With its bold approach to sensitive topics such as domestic abuse, self-harm, and the death of a loved one, Lay Me Down is an emotional journey from start to finish."

She’s done surviving for everyone else. Now she’ll live for herself—even if it kills her.

Kylee has always kept her head down. At school, she’s invisible. At home, she’s broken—caught between a stepfather’s rage and a mother who refuses to see the damage. The only way to cope is silence. Numbness. Disappearing.

But then Price moves in next door.

He’s all wrong for her: too charming, too curious, too determined to see what she’s worked so hard to bury. Still, Kylee can’t help but let him in. And with Price comes something else—something she can’t explain. Scratches on her skin she didn’t make. Whispers in the night she swears aren’t hers. Visions of a girl who looks just like her, begging to be remembered.

As her grip on reality frays, Kylee must choose: stay hidden in the shadows of her pain, or face a truth darker than she ever imagined. Because someone is watching her. Someone who wants her to forget.

But this time, Kylee won’t be anyone’s ghost.

A haunting, emotional slow-burn romance with a twist of the paranormal, Lay Me Down is for fans of Before I Fall, Speak, and The Inheritance Games. Because sometimes the bravest thing a girl can do is write her own heartbeat—and choose to live it out loud.
