CONNECTED

by Christopher Grant

Even though they have only known each other for two months, Bo and Laura have fallen head over heels in love. The two get married and have no doubt that their love will ever cease; after all they were like two peas in a pod. Luckily they have the same interests and both enjoy living life on the edge, and have done many things that have made others cringe. However, even though they have done some of the most dangerous activities of all time, Laura is leery about driving in the bad weather to her in-law’s house. However, the couple decides to go ahead and make that journey together. Could the drive to Bo’s parents be their last thrill ride together?

Warning: This ebook contains a level of thrill-seeking intensity that may not be appropriate for all audiences. Adults should consider carefully before allowing a child in their care to read this story.

Here is a preview:

“Bo, the snow is really coming down out there, and maybe we shouldn't risk going to your parents’ place until after it passes.”
“Are you saying that the girl that jumped out of the plane before me is scared of this snow?”
“No, but I'm not sure that it’s a good idea to be on the roads in this weather, but if you think that we can make it, then I am more than willing to take the journey with you.” Now that was the kind of woman that I married, and we went out and got in my 4x4 SUV, with the brand-new winter tires that I just bought the other day. There was no way that any kind of weather was going to stand in our way, and we would shock and amaze my parents by showing up when others wouldn't dare.
It was a little dicey, but with my new tires and 4x4, it made the journey easier to take, and we were practically home, when a snowplow went by sending a cascade of white over top of the vehicle, leaving me with no visibility whatsoever.
When I finally got the windshield cleared, there was no road in my line of sight…

About the author

Christopher Grant was born and raised in the heart of Brooklyn, NY. He did his undergraduate and graduate work at Stony Brook University, receiving degrees in Economics and Human Resource Management (as well as a minor in John Madden Football for the Playstation).
Teenie marks Christopher’s debut as an author. “I love to tell stories. If you ask any of my friends, you’ll be sure to hear that I’m a certified blabbermouth. In jest, one friend suggested that I try my hand at writing. Ten years later, Eureka!”
Christopher was inspired to write from a female’s perspective after reading an article about publishers looking for men writing as women. “I grew up in a household that was dominated by strong female influences. My mother and three aunts, each with their own unique temperament and assortment of quirks, had a profound affect on me as a child. After reading that article, I figured who better than me than to write that kind of story?”
Christopher currently works as an equities trader and lives in Harlem, NY. He spends his free time reading, writing, playing basketball, and traveling the world with his wife and family.
