I'm really exxcited about this one! I've even gotten permssion to use the lyrics from Iggy Pop's song in this book. Cool! Anyway, here's the way this story happened:
In December of 2015, I watched the official video for the song Candy, by Iggy Pop, once again. I found myself replaying it several times. Something about it triggered all kinds of disturbing, creepy ideas. A pyschological thriller began to take shape in my head.
Once it did, the story wouldn’t leave me alone.
So here it is.
-Caddy Rowland, Author
Meet Connor Reed: talented, handsome, and criminally insane. He just doesn’t know the last part. Or does he?
Connor had been determined to become a rock ‘n roll star ever since junior high. It didn’t matter if no one else believed in him. He had Candy. Beautiful, sexy, faithful Candy. He almost couldn’t believe she was his. She had been his girl since high school. So what if she had only been fifteen?
Guys like him never had girls as fabulous as Candy. Hell, he never even had a friend, let alone a girlfriend. In fact, guys like him didn’t get any sort of break. It seemed bad luck was determined to follow him throughout life. From his Jesus-crazy mother to his jealous band mates, betrayal became a common theme.
Each time it happened, Connor had no choice but to do something about it.
But Candy was the exception. She really loved him. Throughout the years, Candy never stopped loving him; she never stopped believing.
Then the unthinkable happened. And, once again, he was forced into action.
You know how it goes.
After all, life is crazy.
But not half as crazy as Connor Reed.

I hope you enjoy Candy every bit as much as I enjoyed writing it. It's twisted, dark, and creepy!
