Book excerpt: Inside, you will find a story of two little girls that grow into very different young women who are strong-willed, evil, broken, stubborn, ruthless, dangerous, and everything in between. Does this sound like someone you know? They will find themselves thrust into a whirlwind of predicaments that seem too unimaginable and maniacle to believe. Does this sound like someone you know? The circle of friends they are intertwined with are no different from the circle of friends that you may have in your own everyday life. The only difference is this band of friends are just characters on the pages of this beautifully wicked novel. My goal is to inspire and awaken the senses in what could unfortunately be a true-to-life mystery, questioning how far would someone go. Although the story is fictional, the characters’ experiences and emotions will feel real. You will laugh, cry, and you just may swear, but I know you will be surprised. The development of events will also keep you guessing. This suspense-drama is an imitation of life where a series of twists and turns have you asking, “What else can happen?” See if the real circumstances in your life are stranger than the fictitious ones. Remember, a young child never forgets . . .
