Book Description
For fans of Jenny Han and Morgan Matson, a witty, poignant novel about second chances, letting go, and the unbreakable bonds of friendship. Six months ago, Ashlyn Montiel died in a bike accident. Her best friend, Cloudy, is keeping it together, at least on the outside. Cloudy’s insides are a different story: tangled, confused, heartbroken. Kyle is falling apart, and everyone can tell. Ashlyn was his girlfriend, and when she died, a part of him went with her. Maybe the only part he cares about anymore. As the two people who loved Ashlyn best, Cloudy and Kyle should be able to lean on each other. But after a terrible mistake last year, they’re barely speaking. So when Cloudy discovers that Ashlyn’s organs were donated after her death and the Montiel family has been in touch with three of the recipients, she does something a little bit crazy and a lot out of character: she steals the letters and convinces Kyle to go on a winter break road trip with her, from Oregon to California to Arizona to Nevada. Maybe if they see the recipients—the people whose lives were saved by Ashlyn’s death—the world will open up again. Or maybe it will be a huge mistake.

Look "Within" and see what happens when a conspiracy theory turns conspiracy fact and five patriotic friends: An ex-special forces E.R. physician, a conspiratorial minded Internal medicine doctor, a first generation American Electromagnetics PhD candidate, a veteran Jacksonville homicide detective, and a self-actualized, grounded silver spoon banker, combine their skills to expose the con game of government secrecy. Watch as our champions of the Constitution frustrate and render irrational, corrupt American bureaucrats that belong to an anti-American coterie called the Chapter of Death. These sell outs get to pick their work to be sure but the groups motives are hazy at best. Crony capitalism does have an established name, fascism. In the long run, the protagonists are out to put an end to that before it puts an end to America and the villainous “chapter” can turn its page to one world governance.
