But I’m not going down without a fight. When my parents sent me away, little did I know it would turn out to be the best and most heartbreaking summer of my life. My complicated existence began once I moved to Feather Lake, North Carolina. A job offer and a bus ticket, and I was gone for the entire summer. My parents just forgot to mention my “vacation” would last more than a week. A little detail that didn’t sit well with me. The ban of my existence started there. When I got extracted from the perfect summer with my friends and left with only two pieces of luggage and an angry heart. It took two days. Two days once I got there for me to notice him the first time. And to never forget him afterwards. Two days for him to infiltrate my heart, dig his claws into its beating parts, and bleed it to death. That summer, I met him, loved him, hated him, and now I can never forget him. Cast Away is book one in the Wrecked series. It is part of the Medora Beach universe. ◄Excerpt (Cast Away) The blade fell from my grip, landing next to the discarded letters on the floor as I watched the line of blood dotting my fair skin and trickling across the surface of my forearm. I held my breath, waiting for the sting of pain. The one I couldn’t seem to run away from. Something that would remind me I was alive. In the last three years, I had become an addict. To physical pain. Every time the memory of who I lost took over my thoughts, it twisted my insides. Made me vulnerable. I couldn’t think straight, disconnected from my emotions, but dying to feel something. Anything. Blood dripped onto the floor, and I followed the path, hypnotized by the pattern. Still, I felt nothing. Blank. My head spun, and I blinked. My gaze drifted to my arm, mentally begging for the aftershock to kick in. For the physical pain to erase the mental one. After what seemed like forever, the twinge on my forearm, just below the crease of my elbow finally hit me, and oxygen returned to my lungs as I took a deep inhale, escaping the prison of numbness that had suffocated me seconds ago. My eyes flitted to the mirror above my dresser. I looked haunted. Shadows undermined my eyes. And sadness—I wished it would vanish—lingered in my irises. The first time I used a blade was the summer after my thirteenth birthday. At the time, I had no idea how to cope with my grief. Until a girl from my gym class shared how she relieved the paralyzing emotions that sometimes crippled her after her mother’s death. She put into words the feelings that were drowning me inside. The ones I refused to talk about because they hurt too much. Her words resonated with me. For once, they made sense to the confused and heartbroken girl I was back then. In a way, grief broke me. It made me weak. And ashamed of myself when I let my emotions rule me. The ones I tried to conceal deep inside for as long as I could remember. Until I couldn’t bury them in anymore. That was the moment I started cutting myself. Because in a twisted manner, it helped It helped soothing my troubled mind. And releasing the tension coiling tight inside of me. ◄Other Books by the author - False Promises- BlindSided (Heart Song duet book #1)- Sweet Agony- Cruel Destiny (Second Tear duet book #1)- Beautiful Salvation (Second Tear duet book #2)- Wild Encounter (BreathLess duet book #1)- Brittle Scars (BreathLess duet book #2)- Last Hope- Midnight Sparks- Fallen Legend (Lonesome Heart duet book #1)- Rising Star (Lonesome Heart duet book #2)- SnowBound (Two of Us duet book #1) ◄Return and refund policy At this time, we are not accepting returns or exchanges unless the product is defective.

Review Quotes "Featuring an anti-hero straight out of an Elmore Leonard novel, The Last Few Miles of Road is a twisty-turny country noir with a heart of gold. Beetner conjures up a cast of memorably heartbreaking characters, featuring an angel of death killer trying to make the world better, one hit at a time, and a femme fatale in the guise of a desperate teenager, eager to live a better life than the one she was dealt. Carter and Bree are the 21st century Bonnie and Clyde, and I can't wait to see what's next for them!"-Halley Sutton, USA Today bestselling author of The Hurricane Blonde "Beetner breaks out with The Last Few Miles of Road, a perfectly crafted crime story. Terminally-ill vigilante Carter McCoy is the hero we've been waiting for, finding purpose and connection in his waning days as he weighs the moral burden of taking justice into his own hands. I absolutely loved it."-Laura McHugh, award-winning author of What's Done in Darkness "Beetner has spun another notable tale here. Noir at its best."-David Swinson, author of The Second Girl and Sweet Thing
Afterworld is a work of fiction in the fantasy, action, and adventure subgenres. It is suitable for the general reading audience and was penned by Bryan McBee. Set in a vision of the future where a new dark age took over humanity and a new species arrived to fight humans for domination of the natural world, the book follows our protagonist Simon Crandall as he flees for safety after learning a deadly truth that was supposed to stay secret. As Simon races from enemy factions on all sides to find the weapon for which he has found the key, the fate of the world rests on his shoulders. I was quickly awed by the well-considered and intriguing lore of this book which twisted the vision of humanity’s future to one where our poor choices were paid for with destruction and an unimaginable dark age. Bryan McBee’s worldbuilding is exquisite and serves as a perfect backdrop to a thrilling tale of survival and intrigue. Protagonist Simon’s life amongst the ruins explodes upon his discovery of a secret that puts him in deadly crosshairs just for knowing it. I enjoyed Simon’s characterization which made him feel like a natural product of his unnatural environment. Afterworld establishes itself as a dark fantasy that is not to be missed, with its original and deadly world, exciting and dynamic tale of fighting for survival, and deep characterization of its protagonist. All of these elements are bound together with electric prose that brings the whole experience to life on the page and creates an unmissable story.
