When Maria Mast's ex-boyfriend is arrested for trying to kill her and for being involved in human trafficking, she thinks she's finally safe. That she can finally stop running.
But the danger has only begun, because someone from the sex trafficking ring wants her dead, thinking she has information on them told to her by her ex.
Agent Derek Turner from Covert Police Detectives Unit in Portland, Maine, is assigned to be her bodyguard. He goes home with her and her son to the Amish community where she was raised in Unity, Maine. Putting away her stalker is the most important thing to him, since that very same sex trafficking ring killed his wife for revenge two years ago.
Though he is captivated by Maria's long hair, shyness and secretive dark eyes, he vows not to let things become personal. But when he shields her body with his own as bullets zip past them, watches her tenderly care for her young son, and learns more about her horrific past, his resolve to not fall in love with her crumbles through his fingers like farm soil.
This story is one of top top 55 finalists for the SYTYCW contest. I'd love it so much (and I'll follow you and check out your works) if you vote on my pitch and first chapter. Thank you! :)

Touch: Awakening
The first touch burns. The second will change her life. In the future, humans will never see each other face to face. Technology will facilitate all interactions, from emails to spoken conversations to a hike up a tree-lined mountain. They'll rely on machines to provide them with their basic needs and favorite indulgences, and they'll never know another person's touch. This is the world Alexis is born into. 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. As they discover what the Government has kept from them all their lives, they fight to find a way to have it all - even as it threatens to destroy them forever. **** Later chapters contain situations intended for a mature audience.

All of them must face mortal peril because The Underground will stop at nothing to keep their claws in. New Chapters uploaded every week! I have started this book about two years ago. I have always wanted to write a book that I want to read and I love crime stories with a touch of darkness. The characters that I created are not perfect. They all have flaws, just like all of us and I love to play with those flaws. I created them by heart and my love to them is equal. The word I created in this story sets in a distant future, where humans were survivors of a gargantuan apocalyptic disaster. It changes the way of living but in some aspects, but humanity stays the same. The cycle repeats itself and you can always find similarities. I own all the copyrights of these stories and I will take matter seriously to plagiarism. I hope that you enjoy my stories and can be entertained by them. Happy Reading !

Taking down world leaders, gang members, and politicians was effortless, and although his career seemed promising, the elites breathed easier when he retired. That is until the leader of the Bravta called him out of hibernation with a request for leaked information and the head of a traitor on the foot of his doorstep. Cyrus accepts the job and finds himself knee-deep in the world of the mafia. Learning the secrets of the traitor and executing him seemed like an easy job to get him back into the swing of things... or so he thought. Estella Romanov. The partially deaf-mute daughter of Roman Ivanov, Cyrus's target. A writer by day and a reader by night, she lives in the shadow of her father and brother. She's quiet, timid, skittish... and a distraction. Tasked with guarding the daughter of the Bravta traitor, Cyrus finds himself easily able to close in on his target. But the distraction becomes a bit more than just that as Cyrus finds himself captivated by the sheltered mafia princess. What was simply a distraction quickly turned into an infatuation, fixation, and then, an obsession. As his obsession grows and the dark secrets and truths of her home are explored, discretion is no longer a choice but a necessity... because now he's bound to her, and together, they are bound to discretion. ♠︎♠︎♠︎♠︎♠︎♠︎♠︎♠︎♠︎♠︎ WARNING: THIS BOOK CONTAINS HIGHLY EXPLICIT AND MATURE CONTENT AND EXPLICIT LANGUAGE.
