Withdrawn: Prequel to Reckless Abandonment
K. Pinson, Lee Ching

I never wanted to move here. It was never supposed to be part of the plan. Once my father passed away, his absence left my mother and I with limited options, so here we are.
I would have been content just going through the motions, pretending I'm happy here and feeling anything but.
Until I meet my new neighbor, Brynn, and all that goes out the window. With light blonde hair, striking ocean-blue eyes, and skin pale as snow, she is everything good and light and innocent.
She is hope.
Hope for something better.
Hope for something more.
Hope that there is a good life for both of us beyond the Happy Endings Resort.
