Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kordell King might act as if nothing ever bothers him, but this small-town sheriff’s deputy knows something isn’t right and it’s eating him up. The cute bartender he’s longed for since she first moved to town is hiding something—something she doesn’t want anyone to know. Georgina Grey wasn’t who she said she was. Her real last name was Greyson. As much as her family ruled Martha’s Vineyard and the world of pharmaceuticals, she was just Georgie here in Shadows Landing. And that was how she was going to stay . . . until her family found her. Trusting Kord with the truth gave Georgie more than an assurance that her potential death wouldn’t be in vain. It gives her a partner—someone to help protect her as she stands against the storm. However, it also puts a target on Kord’s life when he refuses to leave her to fight alone.

This is the remarkable story of a courageous young soul who found the strength to rise from the depths of despair and reclaim a life stolen by cruelty and injustice. In "Escaping Shadows: A Teen's Journey from Trafficking to Triumph," we delve into the haunting yet inspiring tale of Christopher, a survivor who navigated the treacherous terrain of human trafficking and homelessness during their teenage years. With unwavering determination and an indomitable spirit, Christopher defied the odds and emerged as a beacon of hope, not only for themselves but for countless others who have suffered similar fates. Born into an impoverished family, Christopher experienced the harsh realities of abandonment and struggled to find stability amidst the chaos that engulfed their early years. Raised by a stepfather haunted by the horrors of war and a resilient mother who worked tirelessly to provide for her three children, Christopher's childhood was marred by poverty, bullying, and the daily fight for survival. But amidst the darkness, there flickered a spark within Christopher's spirit-a refusal to be defined by their circumstances. As a young teenager, they found solace in rebellion, seeking identity and purpose in all the wrong places. In a world that seemed determined to break them, Christopher stood tall, engaging in fights and navigating a labyrinth of self-destructive choices. Yet, as the shadows deepened, fate played a fateful hand. A chance encounter with an older girl that led Christopher down a treacherous path. Entrapped and exploited, he became a victim of human trafficking, enduring unimaginable horrors that scarred his soul. For 22 harrowing months, Christopher fought to survive, his spirit tested to its limits. Escaping the clutches of their captors, Christopher emerged into a world where homelessness became his unwelcome companion. With nowhere to turn and only his resilience as a guiding light, he navigated the harsh streets, grappling with hunger, loneliness, and the constant threat of danger. It was a period of sheer survival, where Christopher learned the art of deception, thievery, and the bitter taste of desperation. But within the depths of despair, a glimmer of hope flickered. A temporary respite was found in the arms of a kindred soul who offered Christopher a brief reprieve from their struggles. However, as quickly as happiness had arrived, it faded, leaving Christopher adrift once again. Yet, from the ashes of their shattered dreams, they found the strength to make the most difficult decision of their young life: placing their child up for adoption. In their relentless pursuit of self-discovery and redemption, Christopher embarked on a journey of healing. With the scars of their past still etched upon their heart, they confronted their inner demons, sought therapy, and grappled with undiagnosed C-PTSD. It was a tumultuous path, filled with setbacks and mistakes, but it led Christopher to a profound transformation-one that would shape their destiny and empower them to rewrite their narrative. From the depths of their personal journey, Christopher emerged as an advocate, a warrior for those still trapped in the shadows. Through the power of TikTok and social media, they harnessed the strength of their story to shed light on the darkness of human trafficking, to expose predators, and to provide solace to survivors.
