I'm close to finishing Borrowed. Did you make the future, in Cherished a look any bleaker? This one only makes me want to slit one wrist. LOL

Attention "Borrowed" fans! I have given "Cherished" a makeover. Check it out. I'm going to be starting from scratch, but I do have something uploaded to give you an idea where our beloved characters are headed in the sequel. Please let me know what you think! Thank you. :)

"Steel Hearts"

One girl’s pursuit of happiness beyond her barricaded village turns into a battle to endure the harsh realities that wait on the other side.

Mila knew that once she stepped outside her village she could never go back.  But a chance to leave a radioactive Earth was a risk worth taking, or so she thought. No longer would she stargaze high up top her roof, wishing it was her who took flight to the savior planet, Juno. Instead, she would leave her broken foster home to runaway with her boyfriend, Chase. Together, they’ll leave it all behind to win two spots in the Draw, hidden someplace inside Steel City – a city more dangerous then she could have ever imagined.

Soon, she would realize getting off the planet would only be half the battle.
