Neptune's Window: First Glance (Neptune's Window #1) by Lewin, L L
What if you had a glimpse into what others are oblivious to?
According to the zodiac, the planet Neptune represents illusions, mystery, and the unconscious mind. Aries Dade is a teenage medium who has the ability to look inside those illusions and speak to the afterworld. But for some reason, she can't communicate with her recently deceased mother. With the help of a few spirits, she tries to discover the truth behind her mother's death. But can she trust the spirits?
Aries and her father move to Newport Beach, California to start over. Little do they know they are unlocking a world of lies, betrayals, and deception. And everyone they come in contact with is somehow intertwined with her mother's death.
When the star quarterback and a bad-boy senior vie for her attention, Aries senses something isn't right. Meanwhile, the rich, popular girls make her life a living hell to keep her from finding out the truth.
First Glance is the first novel in the Neptune Window's trilogy.
Do you dare to glance inside the window?
A native of Southern California, I was born in Los Angeles County and grew up in Orange County. I graduated from the University California, Irvine with a degree in psychology and social behavior and I also have an M.A. in Social Emotional Learning. After teaching for several years and interacting with our youth almost daily, I was inspired to write a young adult mystery novel, which morphed into a little bit more. Since everything happens in threes for me (my initials, triple Sagittarius, the third born) the novel (of course) turned into a trilogy and reaffirmed my belief that three’s a charm.
I love all things astrological, metaphysical, and spiritual. With my sun, moon, and rising all in the sign of Sagittarius, I’m as Sagittarius as they come, optimistic, freedom-loving, and ever so tactless. However, in my natal chart, the planet Neptune is also in Sagittarius, so I don’t even know how Sagittarius I am.
My three passions in life are writing, traveling, and soccer. You’ll either find me writing at the beach, on an island somewhere, or on a soccer field. And my three vices are chocolate, pizza, and champagne, and not necessarily in that order.
I reside with my husband and four cats (don’t judge, I’m a sucker for stray animals) in Southern California.
