Free Hostage - In The Big Apple, #1

?My name is Timberly Day. I don't drink, but I do know things. I know the heart beats over 100, 000 times per day. I know for every one second, lightning strikes the Earth 100 times. I also know that Jaxon King-the bloody tosser!-is a muddler. A manipulator. A liar. A con, a thief...and a closet nerd. He's as beautiful as innocence, as harmless as a feather. Except, it's all an illusion. I see him and I see lies.
I smell him and I taste deceit. And still-fool that I am-I rush in. His eyes are like ice. His tongue is like fire. His lies are white, but his touch is red hot. I had the chance to run. I didn't. Now, I am a part of the game. And the only way to win...is to give in.
