Be careful what you wish for . . .
Barely seventeen and I’m already suffocating. Since my mother’s death, my father has basically checked out, leaving me to raise my brothers out in the New Mexico scrub. All I want is a little distraction from the monotony of my pathetic life.
When two mysterious guys show up at the diner where I work, I think my wish has come true. Until they start giving me a hard time. I’ve learned that pretty and poor is a bad combination; it just seems to bring out the bully in some people—like those two alpha jerks. Something about them twitches my internal antennae, but I brush it aside. I mean, I’m never going to see them again. Right? Then they appear in an alley one night to either rescue or kidnap me (I’m still not sure which) before disappearing.
I put the bizarre encounters out of my mind because I have bigger problems to worry about: like that elite military academy that’s been pursuing my gifted little brother. When one of their cadets shows up in my small town, he’s an instant sensation. And just happens to be one of those mysterious guys. Coincidence? Mama said there’s no such thing, and to always trust my instinct. But that might be kind of hard, because every time I’m around Cadet Davenport, my gut starts flip-flopping on me . . . and my heart.
Can Kate Connelly keep it together long enough to stop Cadet Davenport’s mission? She’s about to find out. And—once again—how suddenly life can be split into the before and after.
The Academy Saga is not your typical paranormal romance. It’s a sweet and dark romance packed with secrets and thrills that will definitely give you all the small-town romance feels!

About the Author
After graduation, Daly moved to Dallas, where she quickly put herself through college while trying to rid herself of her country drawl. She had better luck with college, graduating magna cum laude with a degree in English literature. After a humorous five-year stint teaching middle school - and pausing to have back-to-back boys - she began writing in earnest. A whirlwind year and countless sleepless nights later, and The Academy Saga series was finally born. Armed with a Readers' Favorite seal-of-approval, a Hollywood testimonial, and a deep-seeded belief in herself, CJ finally unveiled The Academy July 2019, where it quickly climbed to Amazon's Best-Seller list for New Releases. The much-anticipated sequel, Cadet-in-Training, launched August of 2020 and has already been a huge hit with TAS fans!
When CJ isn't writing, she can usually be found running from one athletic field to another to cheer on her boys or feeding the array of wild animals that show up at her back door.
