    About this ebook

    ALL NEW BEGINNING is the opener to the short story collection. It starts off with Alicia just successfully escaping her abusive father and the town that just turned a blind eye to it. FRIGHT is a story over Christina, an aspiring singer with night phobia chasing her dreams on stage and proving to those who didn’t believe her that she can. THE ELEVATOR is a story of a young girl connecting with a man who she doesn’t realize is her father and giving her a new life away from her abusive mother. The last story, MY TOY, is about a Austin who thinks everything is his and Lunar gives him a lesson, he doesn’t quite understand.
