I chased the lightning through tumultuous uncertainty, never knowing when the bogeyman—my father—would come to hurt my mother and me again.
For years, we lived in fear of his unpredictable wrath, until I found a hero to save us, ensuring we never had to worry about that bogeyman coming back again.
Except he was never really gone.
He still lived within me, hidden in the shadows of my mind. Lurking, waiting to strike when I least expected …
And now, in an adulthood full of happiness and love, years after he was removed from my life, I’m left to wonder …
Will I ever be free from the darkness he cast over my life?
Or will I remain trapped in the prison he created for me … forever?
When I was a wee lassie, I was told by my preschool teachers that I was a natural at storytelling. When I was just a little older than that, an old friend's mother said to me, "Kelsey, one day your books are going to be on the shelves at the library."
Well, Diane, I don't know if my books are ever going to be on the shelves of libraries, but I'm sure as hell going to try.
When I'm not writing stories destined to be bestsellers, I enjoy devouring TV shows, listening to every type of music there is and going to concerts, reading pretty much anything (with a soft spot for romance and certain books located in 18th century Scotland), obsessing over makeup, and pretending to workout.
I also have a fondness for cats, my family, tattoos, and a really good French fry.
