(Na)Tasha

Book excerpt: Meet Tasha Purvis, formally known as Natasha Purvis, a 21-year-old mother of 1, studying to be a veterinarian. She lives with her childhood best friend, Rosanna Clinton, and her daughter Daisyntha Purvis in a house Dave, a friend she looks up to as an elder brother helped her secure. Although all seems well and dandy, it is soon revealed Tasha is running away from a dark past. What is it? What happens when her past catches up to her? Would she be able to fight back or would she run away again? Find out in Na(Tasha)! ____________________________________________ My head throbbed and the floor below me was ice cold. I let out a whimper as I slowly opened my eyes. The room I was in was pitch black. 'Where was I? DAISY! Where's daisy!' I tried to move but realized soon that my hands were tied behind my back. My legs were tied together too. With all my strength I sat up. Feeling a wall behind me, I leaned back a little, my upper back and shoulders touching the wall. Resting my head against the wall I thought long and hard trying to remember what happened last and how I ended up here... That was how she ended up when Tasha tried to run from her past. She instead got swallowed by them. How did she end up in this very situation? Locked up on a cold floor with no way to escape? How was she going to get out? Having feared fighting and confrontation would she be able to fight the demons off? With time ticking away, would she be able to save her daughter in time before she gets shipped to some place unknown?
