From Goodreads: "A chilling and intense first novel, the story of a solitary young woman drawn into an online world run by a charismatic web guru who entices her into impersonating a glamorous but desperate woman.
When Leila discovers the Web site Red Pill, she feels she has finally found people who understand her. A sheltered young woman raised by her mother, Leila has often struggled to connect with the girls at school; but on Red Pill, a chat forum for ethical debate, Leila comes into her own, impressing the Web site's founder, a brilliant and elusive man named Adrian. Leila is thrilled when Adrian asks to meet her, flattered when he invites her to be part of "Project Tess." Tess is a woman Leila might never have met in real life. She is beautiful, urbane, witty, and damaged. As they e-mail, chat, and Skype, Leila becomes enveloped in the world of Tess, learning every single thing she can about this other woman—because soon, Leila will have to become her. An ingeniously plotted novel of stolen identity, Kiss Me First is brilliantly frightening about the lies we tell—to ourselves, to others, for good, and for ill."
I have been asked by Pan Macmillan to help spread the word around about this new book and its brilliant trailer. The internet has fast become the preferred method of contact amongst todays society and Kiss Me First dives head first into its depths.
To view the book trailer just click here. It will ask you to sign in with Facebook and ask for access to your friends list, however it states; "Connecting with Facebook will not result in anything being posted on your Facebook profile or elsewhere, and your details will never be shared. We promise. Connecting to watch this trailer with Facebook is completely safe."
So why do you have to connect with Facebook I hear you ask? Well this trailer plays different for everyone who watches it and you will understand why when you watch it for yourself ;)
