Camille Torres and Graham Stevens are high school sweethearts, and the couple everyone daydreamed of being.

 

With their friends, "The Band," they face a living nightmare terrorizing the small town of Ashbury in the summer of 1982. Thinking they've defeated the monster, life goes on for everyone, except Camille, and at the end of that fateful summer, she finds herself alone in a new city with a broken heart and a mountain of trauma.

 

When a death forces them to reconnect five years later, Camille and Gray are confronted by the ghosts of their past, and she has no choice but to trust her ex-boyfriend when the monster they thought was dead returns. And the darkness she thought she left behind threatens to consume her entirely this time...

Join the Band
Separate Ways by Jensen Parker a paranormal romance horror novel

In a world full of monsters, she must choose:

fight the darkness or let it consume her.

​

Camille Torres survived a living nightmare. Every member of the Band remembers what they went through five years ago, but no one carries the weight like her. 

 

Eight people went missing from their small town. The police said it was a bear attack, but Camille and her friends know the truth, and it’s much worse. Together, the unlikely group of misfits put a stop to the real monster terrorizing their town…Or so they thought. 

 

When Camille returns to Ashbury for the first time since that fateful summer, she must face everything she left behind, including Graham Stevens—the boy who broke her heart. She does her best to avoid him, but it’s hard when he’s part of the friend group, and now she’s the outsider. But it’s only for a week, and as long as she doesn’t let any lingering feelings for him get in the way, she’ll make it out on the other side unscathed. Who knows, maybe they can even learn to get along again—as friends. 

 

But when one of their own goes missing, Camille knows it’s not a coincidence. It’s happening again, but no one believes her, except for Graham, and he isn’t going to let her face it alone. The longer she’s home, the more she can feel it…The darkness she tried to leave behind is awake, and this time, it threatens to consume her.
