About the author

11 books313 followersWinner of the 2015 RITA Award for Best First Book!
Clara Kensie, author of dark fiction for young adults
…don’t forget to breathe…
Clara Kensie grew up near Chicago, reading every book she could find and using her diary to write stories about a girl with psychic powers who solved mysteries. She purposely did not hide her diary, hoping someone would read it and assume she was writing about herself. Since then, she’s swapped her diary for a computer and admits her characters are fictional, but otherwise she hasn’t changed one bit.
Today Clara is an award-winning author of dark fiction for young adults. Her debut, the super-romantic psychic thriller DECEPTION SO series, was named an RT Book Review Editors Pick for Best Books of 2014, and Deception So Book One: DECEPTION SO DEADLY, is the winner of the prestigious 2015 RITA© Award for Best First Book.
The first two books in the DECEPTION SO series, originally released as a six-part serial titled Run to You, are now compiled into full-length novels, DECEPTION SO DEADLY and DECEPTION SO DARK (Snowy Wings Publishing).
Clara’s critically-acclaimed novel AFTERMATH (Simon and Schuster), a dark, ripped-from-the-headlines drama about hope, healing, and triumph over tragedy in the tradition of Room and The Lovely Bones, is on Goodreads’ list of Most Popular Books Published in November 2016, and Young Adult Books Central declared it a Top Ten Book of 2016.
Her most recent book is KILL ME ONCE, KILL ME TWICE, a dual-POV, dual-timeline, dual-romance, dual-mystery/thriller with elements of magical realism.
Clara’s favorite foods are guacamole and cookie dough. But not together. That would be gross.

The queen of epic cliffhangers - that is what Clara Kensie is all about! My heart...
When you are willing to do anything, even sacrifice your own life, for those you love, you'll do it; Tessa is unintentionally the most bravest and selfless teen you will ever meet. After losing so much, including, almost losing her own life, she will go through hell and back to find her brother and sister. Even with unresolved premonitions lying ahead, predicting the worst outcomes, Tessa knows that the right thing to do is to find them before the wrong people do. Even if that means betraying and risking her relationship with Tristan.
Tristan, trying to be Tessa's savior, has disappointed me a bit through this point of the story. He is so adamant about being the one to save Tess and her siblings. I wish he could see that even though he does have a psychic power, he is still a human boy that needs to understand that he can't do it all and he cannot continue to try to dictate to Tessa what she can and can't do, even if it is for her own good. But again, I understand the need to be there for someone and to do what you think is best for those you love.
Part five is just filled with heart-wrenching-edge-of-your-seat moments. I seriously don't know how I survived through any of it...
I don't know how to emphasize enough that the RUN TO YOU serial-series is a must read now!!!
An eARC was sent by the publisher for an honest review. All thoughts are my own.

A thrilling storyline, part 5 of Clara Kenise's 6 part Run To You Series, is full of lies, love, danger and the fear of the unknown. The closer Tessa gets to finding her siblings, the quicker they seem to disappear. With danger at every turn, and love on the line, Tessa needs to find her siblings before something disastrous happens to her and those she loves. Fifth Touch is Kensie's most emotionally charged part of the series yet.

Love this gripping series!

3.5 stars. Tessa kinda ticked me off in this one, and I got tired of reading about "nightmare eyes!" She always ends it with something that wants you reading the next one though!

And the cliffies continue...
I have my theories about this black eyes thing. Will see what happens in the next one. :-)

The characters in this serial shine! The story is full of emotions: terror, shame, guilt, love, and you're rooting for Tessa and Tristan to find some sort of peace.

I honestly don't know if I loved it or hated it!

Not as strong or convincing as others in the series.
