The book is called Shattered and it started out as a school assignment for a short story free writing class taken in college and has morphed into soo much more
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
Shattered (Part of the Shattered Hearts series) I guess what really inspired it was the writing class I was taken in college. We had to write two short stories.
