RUN GIRL

Diana is an American girl, but her only family ties are in Mexico. She spent much of her childhood there with her stepfather’s family. Tragically, her mom and stepdad are killed in a car accident. She’s alone, a teenage mom and penniless.

Her step-cousin, Carlos, offers to help her out with money. All she must do is mule a package across the border. It’s not that hard. With her blonde hair and beautifully innocent face, she’s never pulled over. As Carlos attempts to expand his business, he draws the attention of El Padrino, the local cartel boss.

When he ambushes Carlos’ house, El Padrino comes across Diana. A useful and alluring asset. She works for him now and he wants more from her. Not just the larger deliveries ̶ from thousands of dollars to millions ̶ he wants her. She is conflicted by terror and passion for him. His dark side should deter her, but giving in to him is too seductive.

Beyond love, she’s addicted to him. His control and power are her survival. The news is laden with stories about brutal killings spurred by drug territory wars. Many in the cartel believe that practicing Brujeria conjures spirits to protect their trade. Victims’ bodies are laced with ritualistic suffering. The violence is about to hit Diana close to home when El Padrino’s enemy kidnaps her and her young daughter. Will he save her?

The DEA agent who has been tracking her is convinced that she won’t make it out alive. But they’ve underestimated her intelligence and volition. Connect with me and get information about upcoming stories: Twitter and Instagram @misshomepaige Email Kim@misshomepaige.com
