I'm new to the group and wanted to offer up my first two books for review. They are centered around the ADHD character of Darcy Walker and her penchant for finding dead bodies. It is a YA mystery but Darcy ages in the story and eventually enters the working world. The working world for Darcy, however, will be totally different than the normal person:) My third in the series, 100 Proof Stud, is due for release in about six weeks. If interested, please let me know via this thread, and I can send you a mobi, epub, or pdf! Here is the blurb for Grade A Stupid...
AN AMAZON TOP 100 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER! DARCYVILLE ... where stupidity is celebrated ... with a deadly dose of sin.
Fifteen years ago, Darcy Walker's parents thought it was a good idea to give her a unique name: Darcy, meaning "dark walker." Whether that was a stroke of genius or stroke of stupid, they definitely nailed the irony. She lacks direction, her grades stink despite a high IQ, she's boringly average--although flirting admirers claim otherwise--and God help her, she's infatuated with a bad-boy.
A bad-boy that her hottie best friend, Dylan, wishes would get acquainted with his fist.
And, oh yeah, there's that tattoo that was a royally stupid idea.
With her life spiraling out of control, everything changes when she skips class and finds a dead body... in fact, it gets worse. It jump starts Darcy's inner-verb, and her brain hardwired for action gets caught up in a situation she can't let go.
Set in the fictional Cincinnati town of Valley, Ohio, Darcy falls into a world of threats, violence, and gangland exploits chasing down every clue to finger the murderer. When a fellow misfit is fingered for the crime, Darcy goes from zero-to-sixty trying to clear his name--constructing aliases, breaking the law, everything that makes perfect sense to her but reeks of Grade A Stupid to everyone else.

Trouble is ... will she live to see sixteen?
