About the Book

DESCRIPTION
The lives of two women collide in this electrifying psychological thriller, all wrapped up within the confines of an off-beat contemporary romance.

Although eighteen-year-old Sam has never met her jerk-of-an-ex-boyfriend's new love interest, Maren-their intertwining storylines take the reader on a fast-paced and unexpected ride, told from the perspectives of both characters.

Maren is an impulsive risk-taker with absolutely no desire to settle into a quiet existence. Yet the wheels of fate are set in motion when she meets Chad (Sam's former flame), and finds herself intrigued by his rebellious nature.

Despite a difficult childhood, Sam is a sensible young woman working to establish a life for herself in a new city. However, her aspirations are threatened when she becomes plagued with frequent headaches and memory loss. Still reeling from her toxic relationship with Chad, she finds comfort in Parrish, the very antithesis of her former beau.

Though seemingly complete strangers, a consequential connection between the two women will eventually come to light-in more ways than one. But will Maren turn out to be a friend to Sam-or foe?

EDITORIAL REVIEWS

"The Alternate is unlike any novel that's come across my desk. This well-written psychological romance introduces us to Sam, a girl with a troubled past who just wants to live her life, get a teaching job, and stop dating the wrong kind of men--but the story takes an unexpected turn. Intertwining the struggles of a regular coming-of-age adult with the much deeper plight of a dark past and psychological twists, this book is a page-turner that you won't want to put down. By the end, I felt like I was Sam's friend, rooting for her bright future, free from the demons that held her back."
-Dana Alsamsam (Professional Editor; MFA in Creative Writing; Award-Winning Writer)

"What an intriguing and thoroughly entertaining read-I couldn't put it down! You'll fall in love with the characters and find yourself fully invested in their stories. Relationships can be difficult and challenging, so can working through our past in the present. Ms. Matthews manages to weave together a suspenseful read that explores this topic and more. Just when you think you have it all figured out you're left blindsided. I give The Alternate 5 stars-my favorite read of the year!"
-Pat Simmons (ARC Reader)

"The Alternate is Ms. Matthews' best work yet!! It keeps you trying to figure out the plot and then adds a twist that keeps you interested from the beginning chapter to the last. This is a must read! Can't wait to see what her next adventure will bring!"
-Susan McCain (ARC Reader)
