Hi.  Welcome to the first week of Book Hooks.   Circle of Friends is the first in a four book series of Mystical Wonders with book 4 coming out March 2014.  I am starting you off with the open sentences of my first book.  I hope you enjoy mine, and take the time to visit all the other wonderful BOOK HOOKS.

Mystical Wonders - Circle of Friends  (Book 1)






“What I wouldn’t have done to trade places with you back then.” Shari laughed, wiping dust off the top of the cardboard box. “But damn, am I thrilled to be me!”
“That’s right. I told you, back then, everyone inflated my life into something it wasn’t,” Madison said as she dragged the box marked college books out from the corner. With a paper towel, she brushed off the cobwebs that had accumulated on the top of the box through the years.
