A beautiful girl finds herself at the mercy of a Mexican drug lord. You can read it now, for free, at Smashwords.
Here is a Smashwords code for 100% off the list price: CY98D. The code is good until July 4th. Enjoy! Here is a little more about the story:
Lisa is young. Beautiful. She is a little bit shallow, but it’s not something she notices about herself. She goes to Mexico for a little fun. Some excitement. She would not have picked Mexico, because she is a bigot, but her boyfriend takes her. He tells her it’s all on him. Top shelf all the way. He gets the best room at a fancy casino. It’s the presidential suite. But then something goes wrong, and Lisa finds herself face-to-face with her own limitations. Fortunately for her, she meets Americo, a Mexican drug lord who is only too happy to help her imagine herself differently. Perhaps even as an entirely new person!
As a bonus, I also added the story A Small Favor, which first appeared in Summer Shorts. Trivia — The Lisa in A Small Favor is the same Lisa as in The Choking of a Beautiful Girl by the Bastard George Clooney. She ends up in Carnal (all roads lead to Carnal!) where the men finally treat her right. Ha!
Fantastic cover, Huck! Love it!

Hahah! That’s right. You have a friend in Carnal! I can’t wait until I get off work, so I can go visit your blog without getting bounced by the work Internet filter.

I’m glad you like it! My wife got my a newer copy of Photoshop for something — Christmas maybe? I am loving it. I was back in the dark ages with an old copy — like version 6 or something. Now I can do stuff with one click that I used to have to google for hours to figure out. Now I just have to restrain myself and not put every wiz bang effect into every cover.
It’s hard! 🙂
