Hi Chrissa,

I look forward to reading your books. My new book, Dark Secrets, is historical fiction and I have been told it would be a good YA book Though I wrote it for adult readers of historical fiction, it definitely may fit into the YA genre with lots of mystery and a protagonist who is trying to "find nor only herself" but discover why she may suffer from intergenerational trauma brought on by her Swedish immigrant grandmother? Would love your opinion!
