(SAF IS BEING EDITED) I was kidnapped when I was 8 years old. Taken from my home. From my family. From everything I knew. I always thought that being kidnapped, meant that your kidnapper would kill you, eventually. I was wrong. I'm still alive. You know how in woman trafficking, the girls are used for sex and drugs? Well, not me. I've been living in a building with a bunch of other girls who I'm sure were kidnapped just like I was except we weren't used for sex and drugs. We were used for something else...fighting. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Skylar Dawson, a 17 year old fighter.

Take a ride with her and witness her loss of innocence, her pain and hatred, and see how Jason Jones breaks down Skylar's brick wall in order to get close to her as they both struggle with their feelings for one another. Her darkest secret is revealed when fate has it's way and she's suddenly in for THE fight of her life.

"Okay, where do you want me to start?" "Anywhere you wish." "There were five of us. Dani, Elizabeth, Audrey, Taylor and me. We spent about 9 months in the basement. The walls where cement. The floor was cement. We each had our own chairs. Dani had her baby blue chair with white roses in the upper right corner. Elizabeth had her pale pink chair with white daiseys in the lower right corner. Audrey had her yellow chair with white roses in the upper left corner. Taylor had her black chair with red roses in the lower left corner. I had a white chair with sunflowers that sat in the center, the very center of the room. Each of us had a light above our heads. There were no covers in the lights just the wires losely hanging with the light attached at the end. The front legs of all our chairs had buckles that when we sat down they were right where our ankles were like he knew just were to put them. There were buckles on our arm rests that when we laid are arms on them the buckels our wrist were in the perfect spot. I think its funny how we all never made the conecction." "What conecction would that be?" "That we all have brown hair, blue eyes, were 5'5, all weighed 130. That when you put the first letter of each of our names together it spells Death. I love how at one point we all thought something, right before we were taken. Dani thought she was going to get mail. Elizabeth thought she was picking up dinner. Audrey thought she was going to class. Taylor thought she was taking her dog for a walk and I thought I was going to marry him and that I loved him with all my heart."

Have you ever wondered what our favorite assassin has been thinking? Here are his thoughts from Make Your Bid, will add chapters from What's Your Price in his POV after I have completed the third book. Hope you enjoy!

[Book Three] Hart enters hell to search for Riley, instead finds that 30 years have passed when only three months have gone by on Earth. Not only does he find Riley, but he also finds the true purpose of his existence and it doesn't give him a pleasant vision of the future.

*Book 3 in the Lockstar Series* We thought it had been over, that we had won, that we were safe. We were wrong. While Lockstar was gone and Michael was behind a thick layer of guards it didn't mean that someone else couldn't take their place. The Lamour, the largest assassin cult in the world, took advantage of the world while it was licking its wounds. Most people went back to being oblivious but for me the message was clear, the game wasn't over yet. They were trying to find something or someone and killed anyone that stood in their way. Even worse they decided to make their own human trafficking business and I'm on the top of their list. If I haven't gotten your attention now then nothing will.

*Book 4 of the Lockstar Series* The world is cruel and dark and awful which has me pretending that life is all a game, for it is much easier to get through. I hadn't expected an easy life, certainly not with my current profession being a world class criminal, but a girl can dream. Life throws me for a loop when my new enemies don't hate me but instead taunt me and treat me like I'm a bug, and to them I guess I am. I didn't think there could be another group as bad as Lockstar, but they put them to shame. It's time for another game, one that I might not win.

*Book 2 of the Lockstar Series* As we are told when we are children life is never easy. You don't get the toys you want, or the high paying job, you get screwed. Take my life for example, the only people that actually cared for me kidnapped me and is now selling me off like a high paid prostitute. As a child when we learn that truth we cry and moan until we get what we want, for my case that won't work so I'm taking matters into my own hands. Becoming a criminal isn't what my parents wanted me to be but who really cares, hacking is my life, I can't give it up. So this time we are taking on Lockstar yet again in order to take down it's human trafficking business and let the world live in semi peace again. Of course life is never to easy as the bidders want to claim their prizes, us. Do I have your attention now?

*Book 1 of the Lockstar Series* (Slowly editing) Con artist. Mechanic. Thief. Illusionist. Hacker. Assassin. Interesting enough yet? No? Then how about this, my name is Aura Carter I used to go to college but that was before Lockstar came in. Lockstar is an organization that puts a price on people's heads and sells them. They are kind of like Ebay, oh and they want me because I'm a hacker. Still not interesting enough? The other people on the 'list' want my help to take them down. Still haven't got your attention? They need me to track down notorious assassin Valentin of the Lamour cult who is famed for killing his every target. They want his help in taking down Lockstar. Still haven't got you? Valentin is all for it but see's me as a liability that needs to be taken care of. Have I got your attention?
