Abandon whatever you are doing and read this book! I truly enjoyed it. It's such a quick paced book. You could easily read five or six chapters without realizing how much time has passed! The ending left me wanting more!

EXCERPT

As we canoe back to the opposite shore, we crack jokes about the old troll the entire ride. When we reach the shore, I step out of the canoe, take my shirt off, and dive into the water. The cold water blasts any remaining nerves out of me. When I come up for air, Christian’s eyes are wide with surprise. I remember the bikini I have on and become very self-conscious, but I have such a high from swimming, I don’t want to kill my buzz. I put my hands on my hips. “What?”

“I..., I,” he stutters at a loss for words. “You just dove in and disappeared. You surprised me.”

I wink at him. “I’m full of surprises.”

“Evidently.” He smiles and dives in the water. I take a guess when he’s coming up for air and dive in the opposite direction. When I can’t swim any farther, I lift my head. He grins at me and dives again. We play this cat and mouse game for a while, until my laughing makes it impossible to swim any distance.

He grabs me around the waist. “Gotcha!”

Electricity pulses through the water between us. Does he feel this too? I shyly look up at him. Yes, yes he does.

Floating in the water, times stands still. Staring into each other eyes, the tension returns. Is he going to kiss me? I think he’s going to kiss me. I want him to kiss me... I shiver.

“You’re cold,” he whispers.

I shake my head in denial, but the goose bumps give me away. He smiles and pulls me to shore. Strike two. Way to go, Starr. Way to go.

Reluctant to leave, I stand at the water’s edge watching the late day sun. The damp sand between my toes helps calm my racing heart. He wraps a towel around my shoulders and whispers, “Later.”

Later. One little word with so much promise.

Starr Fall Dream Cast

By Kim Briggs

Such fun was had searching for the actors and models to play the main characters of Starr Fall. I even created a Pinterest board for Starr Bishop and the rest of cast. Just find me on Pinterest at Kim Briggs Writer and look at Starr Bishop’s board. Who knows, by then I might be finished with Di Rourke’s and the rest of the characters.

The role of Starr would be filled by Odeya Rush, and if she isn’t available Saoirse Ronan could also play Starr. The actress must be strong willed, blue eyed, ready to lead the world and to fight the Organization.

Combine the sexiness of Tyler Blackburn, who is part Cherokee, with Thomas McDonnell’s rugged good looks and shoulder length hair with BooBoo Stewart’s muscles and overall appearance with Logan Lerman’s blue eyes and then we’d have Christian Evergood in the flesh and the world would be a much more beautiful and magnificent place. You’re welcome.

Frank, Starr’s best friend, might play a minor role in Starr Fall, but he becomes a key player in the remainder of the series. He’d be played by model, Antony White. You can thank me later.

Di, Starr’s former best friend, also plays a minor role in Starr Fall, but she becomes the 2^nd POV for the rest of the series. She’s kick ass and doesn’t take “no” for an answer. Shauna Phoon would play Di, and if you’ve got a problem with that, Di would be happy to give you an up close meeting with her Docs.

Coda, Christian’s best friend, is Mexican, Navajo, and Eastern Band of Cherokee. Coda would be played by Nakotah LaRance. He’ll have to shave his head and leave a Mohawk. He’ll need gauges too.

Ben, Christian’s cousin and best friend is an Eastern Band of Cherokee Indian. Chaske Spencer could play Ben as long as he got a crew cut. I found a picture of an all-star football player from Cherokee Central School in Cherokee, NC who could play Ben, but since he’s not famous yet, Chaske will play the role.

And that’s a wrap on Starr Fall’s cast of characters. Be sure to follow me at Kim Briggs Writer on Pinterest to see what other mischief I get into.
