SYNOPSIS:
“Rachel is trapped in a tower, held hostage by a woman she’s always called Mama. Her golden hair is growing rapidly, and to pass the time, she watches the snow fall and sings songs from her childhood, hoping someone, anyone, will hear her.
Wyatt needs time to reflect or, better yet, forget about what happened to his best friend, Tyler. That’s why he’s been shipped off to the Adirondacks in the dead of winter to live with the oldest lady in town. Either that, or no one he knows ever wants to see him again.
Dani disappeared seventeen years ago without a trace, but she left behind a journal that’s never been read, not even by her overbearing mother…until now.” 

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
Alex Flinn attended performance-arts high school similar to the program in Diva and has a college degree in vocal performance (which qualified her to go to law school, become a writer, or flip burgers—she did the first two). She knows the calorie counts of most fast-food items and can still sing a high F . . . but not in public. She has written nine other novels, including Breathing Underwater, which tells the story of Nick and Caitlin’s relationship; Breaking Point; Nothing to Lose; and Fade to Black; along with the fairy-tale retellings A Kiss in Time, the #1 New York Times bestselling Beastly, Cloaked, Bewitching, and Towering. Alex lives in Miami with her family.
