Title: CAM GIRL
Author: Leah Raeder
Release date: November 3, 2015
Vada Bergen is broke, the black sheep of her family, and moving a thousand miles away from home for grad school, but she’s got the two things she loves most: her art and her best friend—and sometimes more—Ellis Carraway. Ellis and Vada have a friendship so consuming it’s hard to tell where one girl ends and the other begins. It’s intense. It’s a little codependent. And nothing can tear them apart. Until an accident on an icy winter road changes everything.
Vada is left deeply scarred, both emotionally and physically. Her once-promising art career is cut short. And Ellis pulls away, unwilling to talk about that night. Everything Vada loved is gone. She’s got nothing left to lose.
So when she meets some smooth-talking entrepreneurs who offer to set her up as a cam girl, she can’t say no. All Vada has to do is spend a couple hours each night stripping on webcam, and the “tips” come pouring in.
It’s just a kinky escape from reality until a client gets serious. “Blue” is mysterious, alluring, and more interested in Vada’s life than her body. Online, they chat intimately. Blue helps her heal. And he pays well, but he wants her all to himself. No more cam shows. It’s an easy decision: she’s starting to fall for him. But the steamier it gets, the more she craves the real man behind the keyboard. So Vada pops the question: Can we meet IRL?
Blue agrees, on one condition. A condition that will bring back a ghost from her past.
Now Vada must confront what she’s been running from. A past full of devastating secrets—those of others and those she’s been keeping from herself…

Rating: 4.5 - 5 stars
Cliffhanger: No
Sex, lies, accidents, cat fishing, and a virtual reality relationship... or is it? I bet you are a little curious. Let me start off by saying that Cam Girl isn’t a hearts and flowers romance. This mystery-suspense romance book is dark, intense and filled with characters that are flawed and scarred, both inside and out. That's part of the beauty of Raeders’ characters; they are neither perfect nor fixed in a chapter or two. Her trademark vivid style of writing is stunning and poetic. There is so much description that even car accidents seem oddly beautiful. Read Raeders' Acknowledgments first. She channels so much of her own life experiences and growing pains into her writing. I felt as if she breaks off a little of her own soul on every page. I have to say- I would love to meet the person - (not the woman or man...but the person) that is Leah Raeder. I'm fascinated by her life, her books and all the dark feelings she manages to bring to life in rainbow Technicolor. One-click this book.
