The Boy Who Could Stop Time

By D M Vale

Jamie Reed is sixteen, chronically late, and completely unprepared for the morning he discovers he can stop time simply by holding his breath.

At first, the ability feels like the ultimate shortcut. Jamie can catch falling objects, avoid embarrassing mistakes, squeeze extra seconds out of a bad situation, and even save people before they realize they were ever in danger. With the help of his sharp-witted best friend Tessa, he begins testing the limits of his strange new power.

But stopping time comes with rules.

The longer Jamie stays outside normal time, the harder it becomes on his body. Every rescue attracts more attention. Videos begin appearing online showing Jamie moving between frames, and strangers start asking questions he cannot safely answer. Soon, Jamie learns that having more time does not mean having more control.

Funny, fast-paced, and heartfelt, The Boy Who Could Stop Time is a young adult supernatural adventure about friendship, responsibility, growing up, and learning that some moments are meant to keep moving.
