Girl from Nowhere (Hardcover)
Staff Reviews
Sophia has had a VERY unusual upbringing, and when her parents decide that it is time for a “normal” life, they all move to Waterford, Montana. At first, Sophia is nervous, uncomfortable, yet hopeful. A few new friends and one really cute guy later, she feels she might be able to do this. But you are who you are, no matter where you are, and when her family’s old life shows up with a bang, the story literally turns on its head. This debut novel from another Utah author is so much fun to read—action, mystery, romance, all rolled into one!

Red Sparrow meets One of Us Is Lying in this action-packed, romance-filled YA debut about a girl trying to outrun her past.
Ninety-four countries. Thirty-one schools. Two bullets. Now it’s over . . . or so she thinks.
Sophia Hepworth has spent her life all over the world--moving quickly, never staying in one place for too long. She knows to always look over her shoulder, to be able to fight to survive at a moment’s notice. She has trained to be ready for anything.
Except this. Suddenly it’s over. Now Sophia is expected to attend high school in a sleepy Montana town. She is told to forget the past, but she’s haunted by it. As hard as she tries to be like her new friends and live a normal life, she can’t shake the feeling that this new normal won’t last.
Then comes strong and silent Aksel, whose skills match Sophia’s, and who seems to know more about her than he’s letting on . . .
What if everything Sophia thought she knew about her past is a lie?
