Once she nearly broke my ribs and still no one came to my rescue to protect me, I am just a waste in this house. Tia starts pulling my hair, “You whore.” I look into her eyes and all I see is disgust and hatred towards me. “You bitch; again because of you I had a breakup. What’s so special in you that everyone wants to make you their girlfriend?” I am not the reason that her boyfriends ditch her, she herself is the reason. Who would like to be the boyfriend of this whore who loves them for their bank balance? I want to shout all this to her face but here I am the weak one. Soon my aunt walks into the room, Tia is still pulling my hair and my aunt looks at me with same disgust Tia does. “Tia baby what happened? Why are you making your hand dirty by pulling her hair?” Wow! Great!

I don’t know for how long I would be able to survive this torture. “Leave her Tia and it’s an order.” Tia leaves me hearing the order and I fall on the ground breathing heavily, my face filled with tears due to Tia’s torture. “What is this Dad? Why did you stop me from murdering this Bitch?” She looks in my direction and throws a killing glare. Even I am shocked as, in this family no one cares for me.

I need you to be ready in next thirty minutes. Mr.

The Breakaway
Nicole Cooke - 2014
The contrast could not have been greater - as Lance Armstrong, a fraudster backed by many corporate sponsors and feted by presidents, was about to deliver a stage-managed confession to Oprah, so a young woman from a small village in Wales took aim. She too had been a cyclist, the only rider ever to have become World and Olympic champion in the same year, and the first British cyclist to have been ranked World No.1, but as a woman in a man's sport, her exploits gained little recognition and brought no riches. She too had ridden through this dark period for the sport when drug-taking was everywhere. Nicole Cooke spoke up for those who had taken a very different path to Lance and his team-mates. In her frank and outspoken autobiography, Cooke reveals the real story behind British cycling's rise to global dominance. With a child's dreams of success, she left home at 18 to pursue her goals in Italy. Broken contracts, unpaid wages, a horrendous injury and drugs cheats were just some of the challenges she faced, even before she lined up to take on her opponents. The Breakaway is a book that will not only inspire all those who read it, but which also asks some serious questions about the way society regards women's sport.

Atticus gets her car back on the road and teaches her a little about how to tame her beast. He seems at loose ends, and says he’ll keep mentoring her, so she invites him home.

When Holly and Claus concoct a fake relationship that will get Holly protection and Claus access to his target, they don’t expect it to go anywhere.

Can Holly and Claus convince each other of their true value in time to salvage their bond?
