Heart stopping stunts, stunning photography, and a mysterious man in grey with nefarious plans…
Welcome to the world of the MOTOR DOLLS.
Jenevieve "Jeda" Fromada is convinced she’ll be dead by her twenty-first birthday, all thanks to an odd conversation with a stranger on the day of her gran’s death. Throughout her life, he sends challenges that cause her to push the boundaries of sane behavior—stunts she refuses to ignore. When the game escalates, she enlists the help of Meredith "Benny" Bentley—a grad student and academic overachiever in meltdown—to chronicle Jeda’s final days on film. But when Benny begins to document Jeda's antics—a blindfolded death race, diving into a tank of orange dye, luging downhill on a skateboard—they learn the truth behind the enigmatic man in grey; a truth that tests the foundations of Jeda's family and of their friendship as they race to solve the mystery of Jeda’s life.

WHAT OTHER WRITERS ARE SAYING ABOUT MOTOR DOLLS:
“Brava! This story kicks ass, and I have greatly enjoyed getting to know your characters. Your plot is interesting, unpredictable and credible.” ~Ed Aubry, winner of tNBW strongest start competition and author of STATIC MAYHEM.
“Your opening pages had me absolutely riveted. There's so much of interest here that if I was doing a full text review, there'd be something to say on almost every line, and it's screaming 'original'.” ~AlaIn Miles, author of the great ex-pat novel LEBANESE TROUBLES, www.arealwriter.com
“Overall a very positive and entertaining book. Somehow managed to be mysterious, at times tense, and riddled with conflict throughout the sub plots—and never resorted to any dead bodies, fisticuffs or projectiles. A good story, with two strong, independent young ladies, who break the stereotypical female character yet remain feminine.”
~Greg Crites, author of the brilliant Dunkin the Vampire Slayer series www.veinarmor.com
“Your writing is visually rich. I love the imagery woven in with the words and the way the scenes are ‘directed’ cinematically.” ~Dill Carver, motorcycle enthusiast, extraordinary writer, and really swell guy.
“This was a very finely crafted book and the last five or six chapters are simply impossible to put down.”
~Sybil Nelson, YA author extraordinaire with a recent film option for her novel PRISCILLA THE GREAT. www.sybilnelson.com
