About this ebook
Angela was more than a friend. She was a go-to girl: The only person her bff Callie could confide in. Or so she thought.
"Heeeey, Angie-Angie-Angela-la. Come over Saturday night. Callie and I are together, again. And we want to celebrate the hap-hap-happy news."
When she broke it off with her creepy boyfriend, Callie called it the happiest day of her life. So why is she suddenly getting back together with the creep? And why is Angela hearing about it from Benny, the ex?
When Callie won't return her calls, Angela's only recourse is to attend a party held by the scummiest ex-boyfriend ever. Her mission: Answers. She cannot expect the macabre and terrifying answers she finds.
Secrets abound, and as she plumbs them all, Angie will discover what it means to be a Go-To Girl.

The Go-To Girl
Heeeey, Angie-Angie-Angela-la.
Benny sounding stoned on the phone, as usual, made my skin crawl. He did not wait for me to reply before he said, Come over Saturday night. Callie and I are together, again. And we want to celebrate the hap-hap-happy fucking news.
Hap-hap-happy my ass. No words I could actually speak sprang to mind. Only: What the hell is wrong with that girl?
Callie and Benny had been together from eighth grade in Richards Middle to twelfth grade at Fraser High. She dumped his sorry ass a month after graduation. "It was because he wouldn't let me be me," she had explained. I was her go-to: the jerk who hears all about someone's troubles. Yes, I suffered the problems shared by most pretty people's go-tos—I had no go-to of my own, and I was wildly, wonderfully, truly in love with Callie.
