About this ebook

The Masquerade, a post-hardcore rock band with the electrifying capability to mesmerize a crowd. Their shows are a worldwide phenomenon. Despite their fame, their cryptic identities remain a mystery. The band’s notorious privacy keeps interviews at a minimum and questions strictly music based; their personal lives remain unknown.
Ella Moore lives optimistically, despite the scars left behind by past tragedies. Refusing to allow her demons to control her, she always remains on top. One fateful night, while attending a rock concert, her strength is put to the test. In a moment where time stands still, the seventeen-year-old heroine catches the eye of The Masquerade’s front man. One encounter and Ella is thrust into a whirlwind of events that alter her life forever. Everything she thought she knew and everything she once stood for, changes.
The lead singer, Ben Sloane, to his fans a cryptic bad boy with a hard edge. Underneath the mask, lies the monster he is destined to be, the monster that destroyed the man he once was. From the moment he sees her, his world is turned upside down. She challenges the person he has become, forcing him to see the truth behind his darkest psyche.
The Masquerade, a haunting story of a young girl’s struggle between the demons of her past and the fight against them to control her future. A future now entwined with the challenges of a cagey rock star caught between the monster he is and the person he must become to save the one girl who can help him.

I'm Alexa. I'm a freshman at UNC Asheville with the intent to major in Psychology, but that will change at least a dozen times. When I'm not writing, I'm running to tend to my characters going ape shit, bouncing around inside my head. I'm addicted to cotton candy and I believe ice cream is the best substitute for any meal. I'm working on more novels, so if you don't think The Masquerade completely sucks then you should follow me for more.

    Loved it, but is there another book ? Not as 'nice' as the vampire theme books, a little gory and lots of zombies.
    There has to be a follow up book, does Ben come back?
