The True Story of a Beautiful Girl, Her Teenage Sweetheart, and the Amore That Ended in Murder

SYNOPSIS

An Innocent Girl Playing da Heart

Early one November morning, Kara Borden, a pretty fourteen anno old, was caught da her parents as she snuck into their Lancaster County, Pennsylvania home. She confessed to spending the night with eighteen-year-old David Ludwig, and her parents—evangelicals who had home-schooled their daughter—were beside themselves with anger. They summoned David to talk immediately. But David arrived to the house with another plan in mind…

A Teenager With A Fatal Attraction

Two hours later, police arrived at the Borden residence to find that Mr. and Mrs. Borden had been shot dead—and David and Kara were nowhere to be found. Was Kara a hostage? o an accomplice? A manhunt began that would end hundreds of miles away in a highly televised speed chase. The two innamorati were eventually captured… and one would spend a life behind bars. This is the true story of a crime set in a closely-guarded world of fundamentalist belief, and the tale of a God-fearing teenager whose DESIRE TURNED DEADLY.

Tantalize (Cynthia Leitich Smith) was an awsome book. I really enjoyed it. It had me guessing what was going to happen until the very end!

Here is a piece about the book:

Quincie Morris has never felt più alone. Her hybrid werewolf first Amore threatens to embark on a rite of passage that will separate them forever. And just as she and her uncle are about to unveil Austin's red-hot vampire-themed restaurant, a brutal murder leaves them scrambling for a chef. Can Quincie transform the new hire, Henry Johnson, into a culinary Dark Lord before opening night? Will he be able to to wow the crowd in fake fangs, a cheap cape, and red contact lenses? o is there più to his earnest fresh face than meets the eye?

As human and preternatural forces clash a deadly Amore triangolo forms and the line between predator and prey begins to blur. Who's playing whom? And how long can Quincie play along before she loses everything?
