North Carolina Author Releases Debut Novel - Soulmate

BURLINGTON, N.C. - June 9, 2015 - PRLog -- North Carolina author, Kellie McAllen, is pleased to announce the release of her debut novel, Soulmate, a young adult paranormal romance novel.

Most people search for decades to find their soulmate; Rachel Masterson was born with hers. Sharing her body with another soul has had its ups and downs for 15 year old Rachel, but there’s no one she’d rather share her life with than her soulmate, Rider. Fiercely devoted to him, Rachel has ostracized herself from most of her peers and gained a reputation as someone just a little too far gone on the wrong side of crazy. Her family’s sudden move, however, gives her a chance at a fresh new life, without the stigma of her “imaginary friend.” Hit with the triple-whammy stress of trying to make new friends (and her first boyfriend) in a new school, in a new town, far away from the only other person who has ever understood her, Rachel’s relationship with Rider is strained by the choices that she makes, choices that ultimately lead to their separation. When a tragic accident tears them apart, can Rachel learn to live and love again?

Soulmate is a heart-wrenching blend of humor, romance, and suspense with a unique paranormal twist.  It features a cast of quirky, loveable characters experiencing all the thrills and challenges of adolescence.  Soulmate is currently available as an ebook on Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00Y60FWY4) with the print edition coming soon.  It is the first in a trilogy of books.  The next chapter in the Soulmate saga, Soulsearch, is due out late 2015.

Kellie McAllen is a Hoosier by birth, but a Tarheel by choice who fell in love with the written word at an early age.  Her earliest ambition was to be a writer and she wrote her first novel as a teenager, but the path to publication has been a circituitious route through several other careers.  She eagerly returns to her first love after many years and hopes to spend many more following her dream of full-time writing.

Early reviews of Soulmate are saying:

"I loved it! Once I started I was so intrigued by the story line, couldn't put it down. There were moments that left me swept away with the characters and then I was moved to the edge of my seat! You will be blown away by the twist and you will fall in love with the characters leaving you asking where is the sequel?! I am an avid book reader and I've read this twice! Settle in with this book you will read it cover to cover!!"

"Soulmate is a must-read! The characters were real and believable, and the story line had me hooked from the beginning. I couldn't put this book down after starting it! The concept is unique and fascinating, and I eagerly await the sequel."
