Please Don't Tell by Laura Tims

Debut author Laura Tims writes an intense and utterly gripping contemporary YA tale perfect for fans of Pretty Little Liars. Joy has done everything to protect her twin sister...including murder.

Joy killed Adam Gordon for what he did to her sister, Grace. At least, that's what she thinks happened. Now Adam can't hurt anyone ever again, and her sister can be free from the boy who harmed her.

But someone else knows what Joy did, and they're going to out her as a cold-blooded killer if she doesn't expose the scandalous secrets bubbling just below the surface of her mundane town. As the demands escalate, and she finds herself falling for Adam's half brother, Joy must figure out the blackmailer's identity before everything spirals out of control.

One dead boy. One anonymous blackmailer. And a sister who needs protecting at all costs.

• Unreliable Narrator: Joy is sure she killed Adam Gordon. The problem? She was blackout drunk and can't remember a thing.
• A Dangerous Blackmail Plot: An anonymous texter knows Joy's secret and is forcing her to expose the town's dirty laundry. But each demand is more dangerous than the last.
• Sisters and Secrets: Joy did it all to protect her twin sister, Grace. But the secrets between them might be the deadliest of all.
• Small Town Mystery: In Stanwick, New York, everyone has something to hide, from the high school principal to the local police. And Joy is the key to unlocking it all.
