Lance Corporal Kenneth Pines was a United States Marine killed in action while serving his country. Taken from this world quickly, he left behind a younger sister and four fellow Marines he had served beside until the day he died in front of them. Just when he thought he had completed his last mission, he finds himself trapped between worlds, left to discover and carryout the most important objective he'd ever been assigned. 
  
  Quinn Blair has been on her own since her grandmother passed away four years ago. She has no known relatives and her job as a nurse has left her very little time to nurture close friendships. Comforting terminally ill children makes her feel emotionally connected in a way she can't seem to find outside the hospital walls. Spending hours with children who are slowly slipping from this world to the next has made her sensitive to that mysterious space between.
  
  Death might come quickly, but going "home" isn't always easy. As Kenneth waits to pass from this world into the next, he finds friendship in Quinn to comfort him until then.
  
  This is the final book in the Dear Bailey Series. It can be read as a stand-alone, but it will spoil the other stories if you have not read them yet. Also, reading the Dear Bailey series first will enhance this storyline.

NEVER UNDERESTIMATE A WOMAN WHO SURVIVED. Highest rank # 1 in Mystery/Thriller! Written on Wattpad and now published worldwide in print and eBook (in ePub and Kindle) at the usual retailers! Back Cover Blurb: After 4 years teaching in central Africa, Caitlyn Lancaster returns to her family in Australia, telling them she's been sent home because of looming political unrest. But Cait is more fragile than she and her Federal police handler anticipated. She's forced to accept that childhood family friend, now police detective, Riley Duncan must be told the brutal truth if she is to keep herself and her family safe. With Riley's support, Cait begins to recover her strength but civil war erupts around her friends in Umoja and her harrowing secret becomes the key to that nation's future. Putting her faith in her handler, Cait takes the ultimate risk only to discover that Agent Koffa has failed to take into account one vital detail...he's not as good at his job as he thinks he is. ** Please note, rather than the original, unedited draft, this book is now a sample of the first three chapters of the published version of As Long As She Lives. The draft version to which so many of you lovingly responded was available here for over two years and I cherish every reader and all your support but having the unedited draft available here was beginning to affect other opportunities as I attempt to establish a career in this fiction writing game. Also, I'd prefer that the version of the work that is publicly available is the best version! Again, thank you all so much for your support, I look forward to sharing my next novel in the draft stage soon! Darcy. ©Narrative Disorder 2014 - All rights reserved.

As I put on my shoes on my sandy toes the moonlight sparkled on me and I knew he was looking at me. I could feel it. I looked at him and gasped at our closeness. His face neared mine and I knew it was wrong. But it was the wrong, I so wanted to be right. " 60 seconds left." He whispered without tearing his eyes away. I gazed into his orbs as they revealed something I wasn't ready for. " What will you wish for?" I asked. Closing my eyes I heard people count till ten and then the meteor shower rained down on us. In that glittery night I heard him whisper: " You." ... Sometimes life doesn't always give us what we want. Sylvia Addison, a girl with dreams too big to fit into her small life.
