The Secret Keeper

Being seventeen is life-sucking enough, but being seventeen AND the Mistress of the Whispers is damn near soul shattering. The secrets first found Jasmaline at the tender age of six, and now her many collections range from the Fireflies—simple fibs like taking an early peek at a Christmas present—to the Black Tops—the darkest confidences of the human soul. When Jasmaline gets together with Cameron, life seems practically perfect. But she soon suspects her boyfriend may have sinister intentions. She worries he may be a Secret Snatcher, able to steal her prized possessions, potentially harming or killing her and others in the process. To make matters worse, Jasmaline fears her best friend, Ivy, the only other person in the world who knows about the secrets, may be scheming to lead Cameron straight to them. Jasmaline finds a recipe she hopes will squelch Cameron’s secret-snatching power. However, rather than stifling his ability, the sweet treat nearly kills him. Jasmaline’s guilt is crushing and, worse yet, her secret might kill her. Because there’s only one thing a Secret Keeper’s forbidden to do, and that’s keep their own dark secrets.
