I recently redid the cover of “Death by Cake” for author Melanie Ray.

She wanted something to show the dark humor plus a childish twist.

Hippie hero, death by sweets, never ending childhood for young and old, and an interesting hit on the newest resident? Welcome to Lost Secret girls and boys! This is a story of childhood…that’s not for children.

Shari Kari is in trouble. She just broke up with her boyfriend, but now he’s got a hit on her. Her supportive sister tells her to get out of Calibri City and into a small safe town: Lost Secret. Famous for being the one-stop drop town for the rich and famous’ children. No crime. A Town where even adults like children. She finds a friend in Timothy Varmen, and a semi-happy life, until her special condition gets out of control.

Ezekiel is the town’s Champion Paladin. While acting like a big child himself, he’s taken on the extra duty of trying to ‘save’ the new local resident, whether she likes it or not.

In this town, a man must learn to grow up…while a woman must learn to grow down.

Scandals. Inhibitions. Temptations.

This is a story of childhood…that’s not for children.
