I was tagged on Facebook by Jennifer Bolling-Johnson to do The 777 Challenge. The goal is to go to page seven of the manuscript you are currently working on, then scroll down the seventh line, and share seven sentences.

This challenge is kind of a big deal for me because the material I will share comes from saving Reese. I have purposely refrained from sharing anything from this WIP (Work In Progress), but I’ll make an exception for today.

A couple of things. As the the challenge suggests, this is a work in progress. It is unedited and unpolished work therefore it may change at any time, and is my intellectual property protected via Layman’s Copyright.

For those who are unfamiliar with the SAFELIGHT series, it is the story of three adults who experience life one slope at a time. In the case of saving Reese. it is Jackson Reese’s story, which is chronicled from age seven to thirty.

Without further ado, here is a sneak peek at the third installment of the SAFELIGHT series: saving Reese. COMING SOON.

I try to dismiss all of my thoughts. As I puke my guts away, I hear knocks on the door of my hotel room. I flush the toilet and splash cold water on my face. Grabbing the hand towel I wipe beads of water away, and then take a moment to look at my reflection in the mirror. I don’t look a day older from yesterday. I still have the same unruly blonde hair I had as a kid, and my eyes are still the same shade of blue. Not much change there, except I’m a bit taller than I was back then. All my life I’ve been counting down to this day. It’s my eighteenth birthday, and the biggest news of it all is I’m officially an adult. Fuck yeah! ©2015, Imy Santiago−ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.

About chasing Reese.

Loss Brings Love…

Everything in life is not permanent but it was perfect. Catalina Pardo had a career in journalism most people could only dream of, a hot, sexy fiancé to call her own and a brilliant future ahead of her. When tragedy struck, the life she once knew fell apart. Four years later, traumatized by the events that ultimately changed her existence, Catalina sets herself on a punishing work schedule, preventing herself from facing the demons of her grief-stricken past. Emotionally shut down, she’s alive but not living because everyone she ever loved leaves her.

Fate intervenes in Catalina’s life in the form of a last minute assignment to a snowy mountain lodge in Whistler, B.C. Sent there to cover the life of the infamous Jackson Reese; an Olympic Snowboarding Champion, she is faced with many challenges bringing to surface the raw emotions of her past. Compelled to work alongside Stryder Martynus, an award winning photographer brought in to document the Reese press tour, tensions and denial run high forcing Catalina to accept the past and face the present with zero regrets.
