Shelly Arkon | 62 comments The shoes didn’t fit. It was an omen.
Eighteen year old psychic-medium-germ-a-phobe Lila should have listened to her ghostly Gram’s advice the morning of her wedding, “Take off that dress and those shoes. And run.”
En route to the honeymoon, she decides to listen after too many disagreements with her groom. It doesn’t pay to go along to make everyone happy.
Still in her wedding dress and shoes, she escapes out a diner’s bathroom window into the Florida woods despite her fear of snakes and germs with her dead Gram’s direction.
So she begins a journey of finding her inner strength, putting her on a deadly run from her psychotic groom and his deranged friends.
Will she ever get past her fear of germs and snakes? Will she survive her honeymoon?

Kim Heimbuch (crayolakym) | 10 comments That almost sounded like the description for the book Beautiful Decay, (which was a fantastic read).

I've never heard of that book. So many books I've never read. My story is written in first person about a young psychic in the 80's.

Kim would you be interested in reading and reviewing it?

Kim Heimbuch (crayolakym) | 10 comments I had to thumb through my ARC books to see when Beautiful Decay was published and I see it just recently came out mid-April. I was just talking today with someone about how there are just so many books, yet so little time!

Do you by chance have a paper copy I can review? I do post all of my reviews on my website with a link to purchase, Amazon, B&N, Goodreads, Pinterest & LibraryThing, as well as Facebook and Twitter.

Yes. I have it in print. And I totally understand as for time. I have 177 books write now to read and write reviews for. And I write my own stuff.

Kim Heimbuch (crayolakym) | 10 comments Yes, right! I need to stop using Swype; it really causes more work sometimes. lol The author of Beautiful Decay is Sylvia Lewis, but your books are definitely a different story line and obviously both stand out that they caught my eye, (obviously good!) I'm looking forward to reading it for sure.
