Ben has been out of Canelia's life for the past few months but he has never been far from her thoughts. However, along with her broken heart Camilia has been dealing with some very strange occurrences. This has led Camelia to wonder if it is at all possible that Ben's gift of psychometry could of been somehow transferred to herself, the alternative being that she going crazy. But at this point she is not sure which is worse.

Finally Ben has returned and Camelia could not be more happier, even if others are less then pleased to see him. But things between Ben and Camelia do not go smoothly and while Ben is doing his best to keep his distance from Camelia, someone else is doing there best to get her attention. The notes have started again, along with the phone calls. Camelia is assured that Matt is far away and to her dismay it is looking more and more likely that Ben is responsible.

Deadly Little Lies is a pacey mystery that mixes the paranormal with romance and dangerous stalkers. Camelia's story of broken hearts, new romances, creepy death threats and voices that exist only in her head, is bisected with the diary entries of an aunt who all believe crazy but who has more in common with Camelia than anyone would believe. This second Touch story is just as thrilling as the first and equally as impossible to put down. ( )

Since I had this book (and book 1) and since it was just as short as book 1, I decided I'd read it to see whether I'd continue the series.

Unfortunately, this book also has a stalker plot (similar to book 1), but now it has a love triangle and a love interest that doesn't want to be with the MC because he wants to keep her safe, so he ignores her. Yet, he keeps coming back into her life.

One thing I couldn't understand was why Camelia did not go to her parents in the first place. It seems like a silly thing to do, not showing the stalker-like notes to her parents as soon as they started up again, especially after what happened in Book 1. I know it's for added drama, but since this happened once already, the second time felt just a little cheap.

Just like Book 1, if you're a fan of the Twilight story and love that style of story, then you'd enjoy this one. It's also short and a quick read.

Camelia is being stalked again, and this time I was actually suspecting poor Ben. Its been four months since we discovered who Camelia's stalker was. Ben left saying he needed space and Cam has been depressed ever since. But then she starts hearing weird voices when she sculpts and not only that but she is also sculpting weird things that might have something to do with her future. When Ben comes back to school she tries to talk to him about it but he is still trying to keep his distance. In an attempt to move on from him, she meets Adam and starts going out with him. While all of this is going on she starts receiving weird pictures and calls. And this time they seem more serious. Could somebody really want her dead or is this another prank from her stupid school?

Storlaz has created another fast pace and incredibly creepy book. I read this in one sitting and was very surprised at who was stalking her this time. While some things were predictable, it was still very good. It still captured my attention. I love where the plot is going with the connection with Camelia's aunt and her abilities. Her friends are still amazing, I love them. They are so funny and they always remind me of my friends. ( )

Amazon Product Description (ISBN 1423111451) (http://www.amazon.com/Deadly-Little-L...)
Last fall, sixteen-year-old Camelia fell for Ben, the mysterious new boy at school who turned out to have a very mysterious gift--pyschometry, the ability to sense the future through touch. But just as Camelia and Ben's romance began to heat up, he abruptly left town. Brokenhearted, Camelia has spent the last few months studying everything she can about psychometry, and experiencing her own strange brushes with premonition. Camelia wonders if Ben's abilities have somehow rubbed off on her. Can the power of psychometry be transferred?
Even once Ben returns to school, Camelia can't get close enough to share her secret with him. Despite the romantic tension between them, Ben remains aloof, avoiding contact. Then when an unexpected kiss leads to a frightening argument, Camelia makes the painful decision to let Ben go and move on. Adam, the hot new guy at work, seems good for her in ways Ben wasn't. Adam is easygoing, and seems to really care about her.
But when Camelia and Adam start dating, a surprising love triangle results. A chilling sequence of events upturns secrets from Ben's past--and Adam's. Someone is lying, and it's up to Camelia to figure out who-before it's too late.
