New

a
romance
novelist.
Duff

The

has
been
out
promoting
the
novel
with
a
media
tour,
according
to
PerezHilton.com,
reports
the
New
York
Daily
News.
The
book,
written
with
Elise
Allen
and
aimed

young
adults,
focuses
on
a
young
photojournalist,
Clea
Raymond,
who's
job
takes
her
around
the
globe.
But
after
her
father,
a
prominent

mission,
Raymond's

start
changing
and
begin
to
focus
on
images
of

never
encountered.
The
book
weaves
mystery,
a

love
circle
and
a
powerful
secret
into
the
plot,
according
to
Amazon.com.
A
review
of
the
book
on
HollywoodCrush.mtv.com
noted,
"Think
of
it
as
'The
Time
Traveler's
Wife'
starring
a
much-more-grounded
version
of
Serena
van
der
Woodsen."
When
asked
if
the
book
might
ever
be
adapted
to
the
big
screen,
the
reviewer
replied
in
affirmation,
"Because
a
novel
this
good
is
just
begging
for
a
big-screen
adaptation.
After
gulping
up
'Elixir,'
I'm
ready
for
another
dose."
