Excerpt:

Please enjoy this excerpt from DECEPTION SO DEADLY, the first book of the RUN TO YOU series. Tessa and her psychically gifted family are on the run from a killer hired by the government. They flee from town to town, hiding behind aliases to stay alive. In this scene, Tessa's siblings have plotted to set her up with a boy they know she likes, even though she won't admit it, not even to herself:

Logan went with me to the park the next afternoon too, but just before we reached the entrance to the jogging path, he detoured to a picnic table and sat down.

"What are you doing?" I asked.

He pulled a stack of index cards from the back pocket of his shorts. "I have a history test tomorrow and I need to study."

That couldn't be true. Logan never needed to study. He never even took notes. "But don't worry," he said, shuffling through the cards. "I know you don't like to run alone, so I asked someone to go with you."

Oh no.

Logan raised his hand in a wave and shouted across the park. "Tristan, over here!"

And there he was, jogging over to us with an orange TLC shirt stretching over his chest, and his tousled brown hair turning gold in the sun, and his smile….

"This was Jillian's idea, wasn't it?" I muttered to Logan.

"Hers and mine." He grinned and tapped the index cards on the table. They were covered with musical notes and treble clefs.

My stomach tumbled, and it was all I could do to keep my feet from sprinting me away. "Why are you doing this?"

"Because I hate jogging, and you need a friend."

"But what if…" I lowered my voice. "What if he comes?"

"If Dennis Connelly comes anywhere close," Logan said, "Dad will see him. You have your phone. I'll be sitting right here. You'll be fine."

As Tristan approached, Logan slid the cards under his leg, and I tried to remember how to breathe.

"Hey, Scottie," Tristan said to Logan. "Big history test tomorrow?"

My brother pasted a miserable frown on his face. "I'm in Molinski's class."

"I hear she's brutal. I'm pretty good in history, so if you need help, let me know." He faced me next. "Ready to run, Sarah?"

I was always ready to run. I darted off, for a moment considering running home rather than down the path. But… a small part of me wanted to run with him. Just this once.

So I turned on to the path and ran alongside him. I could do this. Tristan and I were jogging together, that's all. Not even that-we were jogging next to each other. Despite what my siblings were trying to do, Tristan would never be my friend.

But I couldn't stop myself from sneaking glances up at him. Every so often I caught him peeking down at me too, and instead of running on concrete, I might as well have been soaring through the clouds.




DECEPTION SO DARK (Run to You Book Two)
Release Date: 05/01/15
Harlequin Teen
325 pages

Summary from Goodreads:
Originally published as the Run to You serial parts 4-6- Fourth Shadow, Fifth Touch, and Sixth Sense.

Deception So Dark is the complete second novel in the Run to You series, a riveting thriller about a family on the run from a deadly past, and a first love that will transcend secrets, lies and danger…


With no more secrets to keep them apart, Tessa and Tristan embark upon a desperate search to find her missing brother and sister. But not even Tristan can keep Tessa safe from the hostile classmates at her new school…or from the nightmare that haunts her even while she's awake. As Tessa's nightmare becomes all too real, her hope of getting her family back together feels ever more out of reach. When a psychic warns her that leaving town may mean her death, Tessa still cannot stay when she uncovers a potential lead to her brother and sister. Not even if she must go alone and risk losing it all: Tristan, her family, and even her life.

Run to You is Tessa and Tristan's story-two full-length books about psychic gifts, secret lives and dangerous loves. Danger. Deception. Betrayal. It must be true love.

About the Author
Clara Kensie, author of dark fiction for young adults
…don't forget to breathe…

Clara Kensie grew up near Chicago, reading every book she could find and using her diary to write stories about a girl with psychic powers who solved mysteries. She purposely did not hide her diary, hoping someone would read it and assume she was writing about herself. Since then, she's swapped her diary for a computer and admits her characters are fictional, but otherwise she hasn't changed one bit.

Today Clara is the author of dark fiction for young adults. Her debut series is the romantic thriller RUN TO YOU: Deception So Deadly and Deception So Dark.

Her favorite foods are guacamole and cookie dough. But not together. That would be gross.
