It took me three months to write and though I was nervous I was pleased and eager to write again when it was finished. Since this one, I've written three others.<br /> When writing this I wanted to add some elements of humor, sometimes picking on romance books in general, other times trying to make light of a gory situation, but mostly it's about a young woman who must learn to adapt to a world which she's been thrown into and a man who must overcome his mistrust of women and work toward a brighter future. <br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.blogger.com/www.LesliesBookStore.com"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px;" src="http://www.blogger.com/www.LesliesBookStore.com" alt="" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.blogger.com/www.LesliesBookStore.com"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_qkbSkk4T7is/R1Tt4fOpVUI/AAAAAAAAAAU/G4DErSwUWmk/s320/Copy+of+displaythumbnailcover.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5139994629447963970" border="0" /></a><span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"><p class="MsoNormal"> <span style="font-size: 12pt;"><br /></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> Eighteen year old Mayla Devine grew up living a rough life.
