Book excerpt: A powerful, twisted man. An important beginning gone wrong. And a love so unexpected and true, but so dangerous. And then a manila envelope arrives that could end it all...with one signature. Yes, it was stupid. But it’s not like it isn’t something every girl in the world has done at least once before. I can hear my mother’s judgemental voice inside my head saying, ‘well, you’re not every other girl in the world’, and I roll my eyes, trying not to look at the white paper bag that’s sitting on my passenger seat. As much as I try to forget about it, and move on, it’s like it keeps creeping up on me, until it creeps right up my throat, and I find myself kissing porcelain while I’m on a date with Maverick Harris, one that I never agreed to in the first place. It takes him longer than I guessed to figure it out. But, shocking me, he doesn’t run. And I can’t figure out why, until it’s too late. *** She’s nothing to me. A bright, pretty girl, a dime a dozen, in fact. But the words come out of my mouth before I can stop them, and the next thing I know I’m sitting across from her, having lunch. Trudy tries to keep something from me, but it’s difficult to, when she’s got more eyes on her than I do. And what’s more, she doesn’t know it. But it’s not pity that draws me to her. Trudy isn’t delicate, and she refuses help, even when the most terrifying thing drops in her lap. The day the envelope arrives is when she caves, and that’s when my family steps in. The scumwad hasn’t got a prayer coming after her. And God help him if I get there first. But that’s all before the golden nugget fails, and the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow is no longer there. That’s when we think he’s got nothing more on her...but he does. ...and a gunshot finally tells the real tale.
