Synopsis
Abandoned by her birth parents and ignored by her adoptive family, Maddy Page believes she is unlovable. She only allows herself to dream of falling in love. That changes when she meets MJ; handsome and kind, MJ penetrates Maddy's defenses. Maddy soon finds herself confiding in MJ like she has with no one else, revealing secrets even her closest friends don't know. He makes her feel safe--a feeling she's never experienced except in her dreams. When Maddy witnesses MJ disappear and reappear in thin air, she realizes she might have been wrong about him. He could be dangerous--maybe even a killer. Determined to uncover the truth of who--or what--MJ is, Maddy ignores her instinct to run. But she soon realizes that getting close to MJ could cost more than a broken heart--it could cost Maddy her soul.

Lynn: 5 Stars
Laurie Wetzel’s Unclaimed is phenomenal. It’s a fast paced, complex tale with twists and turns that leave you second guessing as to just who is really the ”bad guy.” The characters are well defined and each is marred in some way. No cookie cutter peeps here. Maddy is my favorite character because she is so real. She is broken but she is extraordinary. I find her to be quite relatable.
Since this is a series, the author does a great job at laying the groundwork to carry the series forward. Laurie Wetzel doesn’t leave you hanging but at the same time the reader is left salivating for Book 2.

Fantastic! Loved all the characters, and hooked right from the beginning. I went into this book without reading what it was about, so I went in blind. But by the 2nd chapter, she had me! Trying to piece together the puzzle of this twisty captivating story, it was kind of fantastic to not know what to expect, kind of like Maddy. I love MJ! He is so wonderful, definite book boyfriend material right there! But I still have so many guesses to so many unanswered questions and who's who and who's what, leaving me anxiously waiting for book 2. Never a dull moment and any time I wasn't reading, I just wanted to come back and find out what was gonna happen! Great debut novel!! I will definitely be back for more!
Laurie Wetzel has always had a passion for writing, but it wasn’t until a New Years Resolution in 2011 that she finally shared her lifelong dream of being an author with her husband. He read the very first draft of Unclaimed and gave her the words she needed to hear, “This is what you need to be doing.” Three years later the first book in the Unclaimed series was published with the second book expected to be out in 2015. Laurie lives in Mankato, MN, with her husband and two young sons. When she’s not writing, working, or spending time with her family, she’s either reading, running, or catching up on her favorite shows on Netflix.

Excerpt
My entire body pulses in the wake of his touch. His words “if you were mine” keep circling around in my head, and with each rotation, something inside me grows. He makes me feel happy and less broken. I feel I could take on the world as long as he’s beside me. Whatever he is, I don’t care. I’ve never felt anything like this, and I’ll go to Hell and back to keep it. Regardless of what happens to me, I have to protect him. I have to keep him safe, always. He grins and squeezes my hand again. My body responds with such intensity, I almost feel as if I were floating. I don’t want it to ever stop. I want to stay strong. I want to be brave. I want to feel safe. He gives me all of that. I want to hold him forever, even if it’s only his hand. “Tomorrow,” he says, pulling me from my thoughts. “I’ll find a way to see you.” “Promise?”
