Pretty Little Liars plot twist queen, Sara Shepard, returns with Wait for Me—a gripping twist on a Cinderella story, blending paranormal romance and mystery thriller.

Who is Casey Rhodes? Is she a no-nonsense realist, or a hopeless romantic? A just-getting-by scholarship student or a modern Cinderella, dating cool, cultured media-empire heir Marcus Coleman? At seventeen years old and already in her sophomore year at NYU, Casey sheds disguises effortlessly. It’s how she navigates school and avoids the second-guessing that’s plagued her since she and Marcus got together.

Then Casey starts hearing voices—voices that speak of danger and terrify her, causing her to flee to the remote beach town of Avon where she hopes to sort out her thoughts and reset. But the voices get more intense and are accompanied by visions of places she’s never been and people she’s never met—like Jake, who’s lived in Avon his whole life.

There’s no way Casey could know Jake, yet she feels an immediate connection. Shockingly, he feels it too. Together they search for answers, finding only questions—about their connection, Avon, and Casey’s memories. And whose voice is she hearing inside her head?
