Baby Pawn

by Bobbie Lou

What would you do if you woke up disoriented after giving birth, only to discover your baby is gone? Who would you turn to in a world where the systems put in place to support you fail?Kenya, a young woman who ages out of foster care, loses her newborn to a ruthless scheme. Forced into a world of drugs and violence, a nightmare no teenager should endure, Kenya fights desperately to reclaim her child and escape the dangers closing in around her... But time is running out.

Meanwhile, Jessie Logan, a therapist with a troubled past, and Lance Mason, a detective with a personal stake, struggle to find Kenya and protect other girls like her from falling prey to the same trap.

“Baby Pawn” explores the themes of loss, deception, social injustice, and systemic corruption. It also celebrates the amazing power of the human spirit to overcome adversity and find hope in the darkest situations.

About the author

A warm welcome to all who read and all who write. I’m a little late to the game, but I’m here!!

As a reader, I love almost everything… thrillers, romance, contemporary, a wee bit of fantasy, nonfiction, etc. It really depends on the storyline. I love thriller/suspense stories with emotion.

As an author, I enjoy writing about real-life issues… with a twist. I write in a couple of different genres, trying to see what feels most comfortable. If you enjoy character-driven stories with messy emotions, you may like my books. Some common themes you will find in my books are: found family, survival, social justice, healing, hope, faith, redemption, etc. Even though my books sometimes tackle societal issues and intense subjects, they remain clean in terms of language and content, focusing on emotional depth and storytelling rather than explicit scenes.
