Ready to be a Woman
()
About this ebook
Adrianna just turned eighteen. It was time for her to become a woman. Her mother wants her to attend college have a career and not be like her. She never finished high school and now makes videos and sells them on a website. Adrianna wasn’t much of a student. High school was a place to party, show off the nice clothes she had, and do the minimum to get buy. Going to the mall, she meets an Army recruiter who tells her they will make a woman out of her and give training instead of college debt. Adrianna will learn that being a woman means knowing what you want and taking it. All characters are over the age of 18; none are related, and all sexual acts are consensual.
