Hermit Girl

Fragile, touching, brilliantly funny… - G. Bensley, Author. When severe introvert Willow is cunningly lured out of hiding by her arch nemesis, Chloe, a wildly comic ride ensues that uncovers more than she bargained for when she’s confronted with a devastating incident from her past.

Terminally shy but highly sarcastic Willow has never been able to connect with people. ( I’m a raging extrovert stuck in an introvert’s body! ) From a non-existent love-life, to a dad who vanished on her tenth birthday, to an overbearing mom who won’t move out, every facet of her life brings her slightly more aggravation than joy.

But there’s one person she’s willing to re-join society for: Somewhat-Square-Jawed Bailey, the nut shop clerk. So, to prepare for the scariest act of her life, actually talking to him, Willow sets up a Youtube channel to workshop her seduction strategy.

Meanwhile, Chloe, one of the hapless few who actually follow Willow’s channel, savagely miss-applies all of Willow’s advice and suddenly finds herself hugely successful with men, hunted by Brads and Toms and even… Bailey.

As Willow prepares to do battle with Chloe, she suddenly starts receiving mysterious messages from someone claiming to be her father - the one Mom swears passed away in a mysterious incident that not only made his body vanish, but all his belongings and every single photograph of him as well. It appears that crawling out of her shell has made her life far more complicated than she ever feared.
