    About this ebook

    Sometimes to find oneself, one must first be truly lost.

    Alex Aberdeen returns with a new job, new coworkers and a careless, cynical attitude that's even worse and more manipulative than before. Writing for the local newspaper, her desire to express herself is only forcibly held back by boring things such as ethics, morals and human decency.

    When Alex meets a mysterious new friend, all bets are off. Will her old life clash with the new as she's outclassed and taken out of her element?

    Mixed Messages is the unhinged, worrisome sequel to Calculated Regrets where anything can—and shouldn't—happen.
