This is my first book, I hope you enjoy what little I have so far. Chapters will be written, posted, THEN edited down (or lengthened). I find this system to be easier, and that way you have more content readily available.
Enjoy!

Never Again.
At fourteen my life was flipped upside down. And not for good. I was held captive for many years. I didn't know the day, year or month it was. I didn't know whether I was far away from home, or beside it. How much of my life had I missed? How much had my kidnapper stolen from me? And would I ever find my family again? I could be anywhere in the world. Yet I would rather be on the streets than anywhere close to him. When I finally escaped I didn't stop going until I couldn't go further. My body was weak, my mind strong. I would survive. **Warning: Some parts are more graphic, however, I did not get too into it, the story is about after she escapes, not her time kidnapped!
