Crash.....a crash ended it all and started it all. Dina Fowler is
attending college with her long time best friend Maggie Lawson. Life is
good and carefree. Until the crash that changed it all. Her
freshman year ends with the loss of her parents in a car accident, spiraling
Dina into a deep depression. Secluding herself as she picks up the pieces
to her life, slowly she finds the only person she has left is Maggie.
Chance
encounters sometimes make the most incredible moments, other times they crash
and burn. A chance encounter brings Michael barreling into a lost and
vulnerable Dina's life. Playing on every weakness she has, he weasels his
way into her heart. Slow build up to the hell that was soon to
become Dina's daily nightmare. Her parents are gone.
She wants out but has no idea how to escape her new reality.
Can
she find her way out? Or will she be lost completely burning in her own
personal hell?
Excerpt 3 Dina
Hell. Hell is the place you are supposed to
fear. Live your life in the right way so
you don’t burn in hell. What happens
when your hell is lived daily on Earth?
I’m in hell. I’m worthless, I’m broken, and I don’t even
know the woman staring back at me in the mirror. Things have only gotten worse with Michael. Other than going to class, I can’t go
anywhere; he’s my priority. Therefore, I
should be home waiting on him and doing what he needs me to do. How did I get here? How do I escape? Maggie and I had the worst fight last night
about Michael.
“Wake the fuck up D. This isn’t love. This is control, manipulation, and
power. Love is patient, love is
kind….you know, all that! Where is that
with Michael? What you have with Michael
is fear, Dina.” Maggie states.
“He loves me in a way you
can’t understand. No one can.” I reply, thinking, I don’t even understand it
anymore.
“You’re right, Dina. I don’t understand, I can’t understand. You don’t hurt people you love.”
Her words are on continual
repeat in my head. Battered. Broken.
Discouraged. Lost. Alone.
I will not be defeated. Somehow,
I will come out of this. I will not
crash and burn.
