Author Description

Young Bobbie Rogers has too strong of a spirit to turn down the opportunity of her life—to see the world beyond her backyard. At seventeen, anything has to be better than the poverty stricken and malfunctioning family. It’s a hot summer night as she secretly plans to leave her family to be with the boy of her dreams. He is waiting for her at the corner of her block. He did promise her a better life. She’s packed her bags already. It is the night where no fears for her future can hold her back! Billy Barrington is just as spirited as the beloved teen he longs to show the world to—on a silver platter. Unlike his new dependent, he is through running from his hurts. There is just one problem. He’s 21 and has failed to tell her everything about his own family that could devastate any new beginning the two might have. In fact there will have to be a series of lies to cover up their biggest secret. What will await them when they have made their cross country trek from California to New York? How will this couple survive with so much against them?
