The only thing she knows she wants is Parker, a fairground guy, surrounded by danger, who doesn’t date tourists ever.
It’s crunch time for Jay, time to make the big life choices about her future. Is safe good? Who says what’s right? Could Parker be her answer?
*****
This book does contain adult themes.
Its my first novel and I've entered it into the #wattys2015 and #sytycw15 as life's short so why the hell not. Hopefully this will mean more people may give it a go and have a read. Its part of a series I have planned so watch this space.
Its all my own work so please do not steal it and remember this is a work of fiction. Names, characters, businesses, places, events and incidents are either the products of the author’s imagination or used in a fictitious manner. Any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, or actual events is purely coincidental.
Or in the words of Snap "The Power" 1990's tune:
"Copy written lyrics (words) so they can't be stolen
If they are snap
Don't need the police to try to save them
Your voice will cease, so please, stay off my back
Or I will attack and you don't want that"
"The Power" was written by Benites, Benito/garrett Iii, John Virgo/colandreo, Antoinette.

A grad student slated to become impregnated in a few months' time, Lexi's been struggling with her wild and reckless thoughts. Why aren't they allowed to question the Government's decisions? What if her friend, Parker, is right, and the pill regimen they're on deadens their sense of touch? And why does her heart stop and her chest squeeze whenever she's around Drew? Drew's a dangerous man. He asks the questions she's afraid to voice and makes her think. Makes her wonder. Makes her yearn. He promises to help her find the answers, the two of them fumbling toward something they don't understand. The first touch is painful, the second one less so. Each one awakens feelings Lexi has no words for, until she craves Drew like an addict needing a fix.

All Yours
-If my memory serves correctly, it's been 12 hours since I was kidnapped.- * * * Haley Parker had everything. The perfect family, friends, boyfriend - what more could she want? If only she had learned to be a little more cautious when turning her back to the earth's shadows. Just as things may be falling into place in her life as an adult, she suddenly finds herself across the country, away from home, from everything she's ever known, with nothing but unfamiliar places and her kidnapper not too far away. But perhaps she isn't completely ripped away from everything familiar to her. When Griffin Johnson, her previous boyfriend before he moved 3000 miles away to the west coast, finds her wasted in a bar in California, he knows something is very wrong. And when Haley can't remember a thing, they're both left in the dark as her kidnapper continues to lurk nearby ready to strike again - this time without the intention of messing up. Will they figure out who Haley's kidnapper is and capture him? Or will she return home without her memory of that night, the knowledge of who turned her life upside down, or even her one true love? * * * -An American poet by the name of Walt Whitman once said, “Keep your face towards the sunshine and shadows will fall behind you.” If only I learned not to take things so literally maybe I wouldn’t be in the mess I am right now. It didn’t even matter that I was carrying my so-called ‘trusty’ pocket knife.- Sequel to Not His. (A Shorter Story)Complete
