Doppelganger
I
am who you are.

I
push myself into your body, absorb everything that is you, and wear you like a
glove
~~Then
there are two of us~~
Live fast, play hard, move on! That was my mantra...
...until I dressed myself in CeCe
...and she led me to Gaire.
Sexy
laugh, body to die for, and eyes to get lost in, Gaire intrigued me, attracts me, and churns up feelings I've never felt before.
Gaire turns out to be the ultimate 
bad boy. I run, and swear never to look back. Only problem is, I can't forget him. Time to find a new body. One Gaire will like.

Damn it, I want to rock Gaire's world! Unfortunately,

I met her on a corner on South Orange Blossom Trail in Orlando.
The girl's got spunk. Jane helped me find Gaire, and then she was gone.
Gaire's motto is We Can Work it Out.
To do that I needed my third host, Gracie Jean.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
I love laughing with my daughters, class B scary movies, fine cuisine and hamburgers from Wendy's. I'm addicted to electronics, dark chocolate, vintage eyeglass frames, warm socks, have been known to drive miles for a really good cup of cappuccino. I'm a wannabe gamer--Zelda is my fave, but I'll play Mario with my grandson for hours. I am an Amazon girl all the way, baby. I LOVE my Kindle!--support Indie authors.
There isn't just one thing I'm passionate about. I'm married to a wonderful man, have two adult daughters, three grandsons, and three dogs. I live on fifty acres and hunt and fish. I will get up in the middle of the night to listen to the coyote sing, sit under a tin roof in the middle of a rain storm, stare at barren trees and revel in the white show surrounding them. I sew, do stained glass, paint watercolors, make jewelry, but most of all, I write. I write because I have to, and because it amuses me to live vicariously through my characters.

Susan Stec on:
Review by C. Lee Brown – Purgatory
ReplyDeleteIn Purgatory writer Susan Stec challenges the norm in horror. By that I mean she doesn’t have a pack of werewolves fighting a vampire brood. In Purgatory she brings to life an old and mysterious creature we call Doppelganger. That word originated with the Germans to describe something that is a look-alike for something else and so we discover the heroine of Susan’s latest book. Whether she is “wearing” Cece, Grace or Jane, this female Doppelganger is both gorgeous and deadly. She takes and uses anyone for as long as it amuses her then casts off that person for another. Unfortunately, this sometimes is fatal for the human, but a Doppelganger doesn’t care. She doesn’t have human emotions. Or does she? Can a creature that is little more than a wisp of smoke assume a woman’s physical appearance and also assume her human feelings, like love? Or is it just desire?
The co-star in Susan’s story is another seldom heard of creature called a Wendigo. What is a Wendigo you ask? It is a mythical creature feared in Native American lore that devoured flesh and was so hideous that the strongest braves would turn tail and run. When the half-human breed Wendigo, called Caire, hooks up with the beautiful Cece possessed by the Doppelganger, sparks start to fly. As Cece, she falls hard for Gaire, and he wants her, but both are afraid their true nature will destroy each other. Visit the underworld called Purgatory and follow these living demons as they seek each other to satisfy their human emotions.
I found the story of these creatures search for each other and true love filled with edge-of-the-seat suspense. The tension is broken by violent, graphic mayhem as only Susan Stec can describe. She is one of my favorite writers and has here a real crowd-pleaser told in her unique style. A must read for everyone who loves a tale that has you laughing one second then shocked in horror the next. C. Lee Brown
