Here's more about the book!

"The Athena Effect"
by Derrolyn Anderson


Summary from goodreads.com:  


Country girl Cal has been kept a secret her entire life, raised in isolation by two very troubled people. Despite her parent’s disturbing fits, Cal is perfectly content, living at one with the nature that surrounds her, and finding adventure inside the pages of her beloved books. When an awful tragedy tears her away from her remote cabin in the woods, nothing she’s ever read has prepared her for a world that she knows very little about.

Girls and motorcycles are what bad-boy Cal’s life is all about. Brought up in a raucous party house by his biker brother, he’s free to do as he pleases, going through the motions on his final days of high school. Aimless, Cal stopped thinking about his future a long time ago.

Attacked by a gang of thugs while running an errand for his brother, Cal is in serious trouble until a fierce girl appears out of nowhere to intervene. She chases off three grown men, sparing Cal a brutal beating before disappearing into the night like a spirit. He can’t stop thinking about his mysterious rescuer, and when she turns out to be the weird new girl at school who goes out of her way to avoid him, he can’t contain his curiosity.

He’s never met anyone like her before, and the more he learns about the unusual girl who shares his nickname, the more he wants to know. Cal can’t help falling for Cal, but can he keep her from falling victim to a dangerous enemy from her parent’s tragic past?

  5. This book sounds so good! I love it when the female lead is the heroine! Usually, the guy is always saving the girl! Plus, everyone loves a bad boy and I can see these two falling for each other really hard. It's kinda cute that they both are called Cal. Thanks for the awesome giveaway, and the necklace is beautiful :)

  7. I'm hoping one comment will do for both contests. This sounds great. Cal and Cal. I'm thinking Greek Goddess of Battle and Wisdom wasn't that Athena? I'm not sure. But this sounds like a great novel! Boy is she pretty. And she rescues him? I LOVE that!
