Dangerous Designs: Book 1 of Design Series

by Dale Mayer

Overview

Drawing is her world...but when her new pencil comes alive, it's his world too.

Her... Storey Dalton is seventeen and now boyfriendless after being dumped via Facebook. Drawing is her escape. It's like as soon as she gets down one image, a dozen more are pressing in on her. Then she realizes her pictures are almost drawing themselves...or is it that her new pencil is alive?

Him... Eric Jordan is a new Ranger and the only son of the Councilman to his world. He's crossed the veil between dimensions to retrieve a lost stylus. But Storey is already experimenting with her new pencil and what her drawings can do - like open portals.

It... The stylus is a soul-bound intelligence from Eric's dimension on Earth and uses Storey's unsuspecting mind to seek its way home, giving her an unbelievable power. She unwittingly opens a third dimension, one that held a dangerous predatory species banished from Eric's world centuries ago, releasing these animals into both dimensions.

Them... Once in Eric's homeland, Storey is blamed for the calamity sentenced to death. When she escapes, Eric is ordered to bring her back or face that same death penalty. With nothing to lose, can they work together across dimensions to save both their worlds?

About the Author

Dale Mayer is a USA Today bestselling author who writes for the young, the old and those in-between – no matter what the age. Some of her books are hot, some are sweet. Some will keep you up at night with a light on to keep the boogie man away and some you’ll want to cuddle close.



She’s long given up on trying to fit a specific genre. Instead she honors the stories that come to her – and some of them are crazy, break all the rules and cross multiple genres!



And that’s okay too.



There is one guarantee with each book – it will be a great read – each and every time.

Editorial Reviews

Dale Meyer has written an interesting tale for young adults, which doesn't force adult behaviour on the protagonists. Storey is a tool of the stylus to begin with but ends up making her own choices and being true to herself.

Fresh Fiction - Clare O'Bearam

Dangerous Designs is a fantastic adventure with lots of fun and a cute romance. I recommend as a great read.

I Heart YA Books - S. C.

There is something really special about Dale Mayer's stories, and this young adult fantasy adventure is no exception. The pacing kept me reading into the wee hours." Laurie, Reviewer for Coffee Time Romance & More

Coffee Time Romance & More - Laurie reviewer

With an interesting and unique premise that incorporates a little bit of sci fi, a whole lot of tension, and an underlying vein of attraction and tension with romance, DANGEROUS DESIGNS was a great read.

Fresh Fiction - Amber Keller

Brilliant master piece in the YA Paranormal genre. Filled with suspense that kept you glued to the pages as the story unfolds of Storey and her ability to draw portals into other dimensions. Highly recommended to lovers of YA Suspense stories.
