This story will become FREE on August 30th, 2023! Hudson Caldwell is being stalked, but the cops don't believe her. Can she unravel the truth before it consumes her? * * * * * Just when Hudson Caldwell's life is finally coming together, an unwavering paranoia threatens to tear it apart. Someone is following her - that's the feeling she gets every time she leaves her downtown Chicago apartment. After a failed attempt to file a police report, Hudson's stripper best friend gifts her with an unregistered firearm, but the weapon isn't enough to stop an attack in the middle of the night. When rookie cop, Myles Young, responds to a complaint of gunfire, he instantly falls for Hudson's quiet vulnerability and shattered past. He vows to keep her safe - much to the dismay of his case-hardened partner. As their relationship intensifies, the identity of Hudson's stalker slowly comes to light. But the closer Myles comes to solving the mystery, the more he realizes he's in over his head.

I could never come to grips with the fact that this was my life. I could never come to grips with the fact that everyone and everything I loved was dead. Because even though I had escaped the horrors of my past, I was still in the grips of those I hated most. *** What they say is true... You never truly understand what you have until you lose it all. My life was great. I had everything I wanted, but most importantly, everything I needed... I never knew what thirst, hunger, and destruction was. I never knew that true pain and suffering existed. I never knew anything... Until my whole world was brutally ripped away from me. -Jess Hope y'all like it.
