Jennifer's Body

Jennifer, while not what you'd call "drop-dead" gorgeous, was by no means unattractive -- with her flaming red hair, large sapphire-blue eyes, and a figure that some guys would describe as "fun," she was more than a match for any other woman who'd care to "take her on" where men were concerned. She'd moved to Port Landers a year before when she started her job as an assistant librarian. It wasn't a traumatic change...the town where she'd grown up was only thirty miles away. Still, it had been a bit lonely after college...Jennifer really didn't know anyone except for her cousin Caitlyn (also her best friend since childhood), who was usually busy with her plant shop. She and Caitlyn would talk on the phone several times a week, and sometimes would be able to meet coffee, or dinner -- once in a blue moon, they might even get to go see a movie together. But it wasn't really the same. For the most part, Jennifer's life consisted of the library, her apartment, and an occasional drink with some of her acquaintances from work at a small neighborhood bar around the corner from her apartment building. It wasn't the worst life in the world -- but it wasn't particularly exciting, either. Read the whole story in the book.
