I stayed alive. Well, my body survived, my mind didn't. I’m damaged beyond repair. I live on my nerves. I feel emotions bigger than myself, and I am many things. Vulnerable Anxious. . Paranoid. Guarded. . Ashamed. Dirty. Exposed. And I feel alone. I pray that one day I will be free. But that means placing trust and letting someone in. Would they make me brighter? Would they make me believe? Would I make them dark? I’ve never wanted to feel for someone else because I’m far too broken and deep. It scares me. I don’t trust easily. I’m curious, but I’m nervous.

He is giving me his heart, body, mind, and soul. I love it … I love him. And there is no other place I want to be other than in his arms. With Lucca … I feel like I can breathe. I’m alive. I need him to keep me here. I’m Lexi and this is my story about a world of darkness and a journey towards the light. *** *This book contains adult content.

Q. Zayne - 2017
I have a secret. I still have my V card, and I'm on my first road trip across the country.

By the time I find out what he expects my curvy body to endure, I'm not sure there's anything I wouldn't let him do, including everything risky with his silver fox buddy and their mammoth Black best friend. Even when I'm reluctant, Buck knows just how to master me to get everything he wants. If you're up for this, come on Gia's first ride! This erotica is for readers 18+ due to strong sexual content, language and dark themes. Truckers contains BDSM, sharing, interracial group action, a hard and unprotected first time, ownership, age gap relationships, and may disturb some readers. The intense activities are fantasy only and not safe or possible in real life. This is a complete standalone novelette, about 10,000 words, with no cliffhanger. A novelette is longer than a short story and shorter than a novella. :) It's Dark Fantasy erotica with scary-hot moments to make you squirm in all the right ways. Plus, you get bonus previews of two of my other books in this edition. Please Note: Truckers is included in the collection, Taking Curves. If you have that bundle, you don't need this single. Adventurous readers, let's roll. Q.
