Part I – Kenzie's Story Cursing and crying, I entered the last few digits of the number into my disposable cell phone and hit Send. I hoped she was home. If she wasn't, I was going to fall apart. "Hello?" the voice began. "Danni? It's me Kenzie," I said with forced cheerfulness. Danni had been my best friend in high school. We had been inseparable from t...
Author's note. This chapter is a bit lovey dovey. If you're not into that, SORRY! It might also be a bit shorter than the last one.

I will never forget the first time I met Sheyna. It made me regret the fact that I was born a girl. Well I didn't regret it afterwards, but then I am getting way ahead of myself here. 2 years ago, I was running down the streets of New York, 10 minutes late for my first job interview mad as hell and wearing the most inappropriate blouse which was the one that...

We've been engaged, but it never happened because of commitment issues on both parts. On again, off again. Lately, I haven't been too trusting him being surrounded by pretty nurses all day.

Samantha walked into the rustic, bustling coffee shop where she trained her gaze upon a barista who she knew from the spa. Sam was wearing her skin-tight denims with a white, deep V Bow-neckline blouse with ruffles, which caught the glances of all the guys.
