They were taken.
Off the
street.
From parking
lots.
Malls.
Playgrounds.
Snatched from life and thrust into hell.
They took Orion Darby on a perfect summer day, while
she could still taste her first kiss on her lips.
She joined the others with chains on their ankles
and scars on their souls.
They turned into nothing more than
statistics.
Cold cases. Lost girls.
Years passed and the world forgot.
Until the day they
escaped.
This is not about their
captivity.
This is about their struggle to return to a life
that's passed them by.
This was the real world.
But for Orion, this was hell.
You see... freedom isn't enough.
She needs blood.

Anne
Malcom has been an avid reader since before she can remember,
her mother responsible for her book addiction. It started with magical journeys
into the world of Hogwarts and Middle Earth. As she grew up, her reading tastes
grew with her. Her obsession with books and romance novels in particular, gave
Anne the opportunity to find another passion, writing. Finding writing about
alpha males and happily ever afters more fun than reading about them, Anne is
not about to stop any time soon.
Raised in small-town New Zealand, Anne had a truly special
childhood, growing up in one of the most beautiful countries in the world. She
has backpacked across Europe, ridden camels in the Sahara, eaten her way
through Italy, and had all sorts of crazy adventures. Currently living in
London, she’s on a whole new adventure.

Urruela
BT Urruela is a combat wounded amputee,
purple heart recipient, contemporary author who has written both independent
and traditionally published books. He is a RARE under 40 award recipient,
Rockwood Summit High School and Rockwood School District Hall of Fame inductee,
Co-founder and Brand Ambassador for VETSports, Ambassador for Tampa Sports
Academy, People Magazine Tribute for Heroes winner, Cover Model, Motivational
Speaker and Philanthropist.
At an early age he began writing short stories having been
inspired by reading books authored by RL Stein. His maternal grandmother's
bookshelf was filled with literature that inspired his young mind and
cultivated his vivid imagination.
Upon graduation from high school his desire to have a 20-year
military career was cut drastically short by an improvised explosive device.
Taking the life of his commander, and leaving the remaining four team members
badly wounded.
After careful consideration and multiple surgeries,
he along with the guidance of his doctors made the decision to amputate. It was
the only surgery he ever left with a smile on his face, as if a weight had been
lifted. He struggled for two more years through 4-5 hours of physical therapy a
day, five days a week to get adapted to his new prosthetic. He medically
retired from the Army with high hopes. His focus on restoring his physical
shape being the most eminent battle caused him to neglect his psychological
state.
Meeting people was difficult and there were very few options
for veterans to utilize that would stimulate friendship, and ultimately, allow
communication barriers to be breached. After moving to Tampa, Florida, he
co-founded the veteran community sports nonprofit, VETSports, with two other
combat wounded veterans. It was their mission to change the way veterans
transitioned back to civilian life through organized team sports, community
involvement, and leadership opportunities.
After being invited to
attend a photoshoot with acclaimed photographer Michael Stokes, he flew to
California in December of 2014, with incredible excitement. His photos were so
widely publicized that he soon gained exposure to the literary world like he'd
always dreamed of. That opportunity launched him into his present writing
career. He co-wrote the novel 'A Lover's Lament with author KL Grayson. The
following year he released first solo novel, 'Into the Nothing' and will be
releasing Wicked Little Words with author Stevie J. Cole. He is now writing
full-time.
