It started with the bestselling YA novel, Hush Money, which sold over 10,000 copies in its first six months of publication. Joss Marshall, a girl with a supernatural ability—a Talent—living in a world where supernatural abilities are against the law, won the hearts of readers alongside her long-time crush, Dylan Maxwell.
Be normal, invisible. Don’t get close to anyone. Those are the rules to live by for seventeen-year-old Joss. She spent years as an outsider, hoping to hide what she is, until the new girl, Kat, decides she’s friend material. Kat doesn’t realize her mistake when she stands up for Joss against Marco, a guy who’s been giving Joss a hard time since freshman year. Joss is horrified when these heroics lead to the reveal of Kat’s Talent. Now she has an unasked-for best friend, who is the victim of an extortion plot by the school bully, who used to like Joss. And if all that weren’t complicated enough, Dylan, Joss’s long-time crush, is finally starting to talk to her. But as Marco’s best friend, can Dylan be trusted at all? Can Joss keep her secret and still save her friend? And what’s more important, staying safe or doing what’s right?
Hush Money is a fast-paced read, full of page-turning surprises, available for Kindle for $0.99.
The much-anticipated sequel, Heroes ’Til Curfew, is now available for Kindle as well.
Joss’s and Dylan’s relationships evolves with tenderness and sensual awareness as the two seemingly very different teens learn that they’re more alike than either would have guessed. But as more Talents are imprisoned by the government, everyone’s looking for a leader. Some look to Joss, some to her worst enemy, Marco, whose lust for money and power combines with his vendetta against the couple in a criminal plot that attracts the attention of outside forces and threatens Joss’s family, friends, and residents of the town of Fairview. Joss wants to stand up to Marco, but Dylan’s protective instincts are putting him in harm’s way. As the stakes get higher, can Joss find a way to embrace both the boy and her hero within?
Heroes ’Til Curfew is an engrossing story packed with action, drama, and romance, available for Kindle for $2.99.
“X-Men meets Smallville meets Awesome!” ~A.M. Harte, Quills and Zebras
“Susan Bischoff is one of the best indie YA authors out there. From her snappy Whedon-esque dialogue to her to-die-for characterizations, she’s a winner.” ~V.J. Chambers, author of Breathless
“Reading this book is a wrenching experience. The characters are all so REAL, and it’s here that Bischoff excels — in the crafting of her characters, their relationships, and their internal struggles.” ~Claire Legrand, author of The Cavendish Home for Boys and Girls
