Dealing with Blue in the

King County Library System

DEALING WITH BLUE 

Living with her mom and hiding secrets, the dutiful and loyal Suzy Blue yearns to break out of her claustrophobic home. The first step to freedom is getting her drivers license, and when her cute neighbor, J.J. Radborne, offers her a deal--help him make his ex jealous in exchange for wheels--Suzy jumps at the opportunity. Being his fake girlfriend wouldn't be a hardship. But too soon, pretending turns into love and complicates her plan. How can she stay when freedom means leaving her small town?

Here's my latest blackout poem from a recycled "proof" page of Dealing with Blue:

LOVE

A horrible idea was regret.

Say the word...tender, pulsing.
