Naked Playlist 
The day Taylor Swift pulled her songs from Spotify was the day my book playlist went to die. Good thing I was already finished writing and almost all the edits were done at that point. I remember having one edit left and I had to make a youtube playlist because without Taylor Swift, the playlist is seriously lacking. 

I had four major songs that set the tone for this book (only one of them isn’t a Taylor Swift song). Songs that fit different aspects so perfectly they felt like they were made for it, made to help me along (one of which, I swear, could be the theme song). Here is a list of my most important playlist songs and some of the lyrics that struck me the most (because, let’s face it, it’s the lyrics that makes these songs so great for Anna’s story) 


1) Dear John by Taylor Swift 
Dear John, I see it all now that you're gone. 
Don't you think I was too young 
To be messed with? 
The girl in the dress 
Cried the whole way home 
I should've known. 

2) Begin Again by Taylor Swift 
I've been spending the last eight months 
Thinking all love ever does is break and burn and end 
But on a Wednesday in a cafe I watched it begin again 

3) Whore by In This Moment  
You probably thought I wouldn't get this far 
You thought I'd end up in the back of a car 
You probably thought that I'd never escape 
I'd be a rat in a cage, I'd be a slave to this place 
You don't know how hard I fought to survive, 
Waking up alone when I was left to die 
You don't know about this life I've lived, 
All these roads I've walked 
All these tears I've bled 

4) Innocent by Taylor Swift 
 (I could quote this whole song but I’ll stick to just a tid bit;) ) 

Did some things you can't speak of 
But at night you live it all again 
You wouldn't be shattered on the floor now 
If only you had seen what you know now then 
... 
It's alright, just wait and see 
Your string of lights is still bright to me 
Oh, who you are is not what you've been 
You're still an innocent 

Some other songs on the play list: 
Rise by Shawn Mcdonald 
Runaway by Linkin Park 
Torn to Pieces by Pop Evil 
Somewhere Inbetween by Lifehouse 
Lean On Me by DC Talk 
Through Glass by Stone Sour 
Safe and Sound by Taylor Swift and The Civil Wars 
Never Too Late by Three Days Grace 
Psycho by Puddle Of Mud 
Fearless by DC Talk 

About the Author:

Stacey Trombley lives in Ohio with her husband and the sweetest Rottweiler you’ll ever meet. She thinks people are fascinating and any chance she has, she’s off doing or learning something new. She went on her first mission trip to Haiti at age twelve and is still dying to go back. Her “places to travel” list is almost as long as her “books to read” list. 

She wants to bring something new to the world through her writing, but just giving a little piece of herself is more than enough. 


Keep a look out for her debut novel NAKED, coming from Entangled Teen in 2015
