Good For Everything

────────

CHARITY "CHERRY" LOCKWOOD, the girl that boys lusted over in hopes to just be humored with one date, the girl that her female counterparts either admired hopelessly or envied with a passion hidden behind curtains of false praise, and the girl that parents encouraged their children to refer to as a role model.

Everything seemed simple in the bijou town of Lynmell as all was at rest and in order. The town of a population of exactly five-hundred had never seen a change out of this very disposition. That is, until the population had risen a mere two more people - Keaton Reese and his single mother.

There was nobody like Keaton Reese - he was black to the very core of his being. He had put the bad-boy title to shame as he wrecked havoc with simple snap of his fingers. In other words, the perfect opposing rival of none other than Cherry Lockwood.

TO THE READER

Thank you for choosing to read Good For Everything. This book carries a soft spot in my heart unlike others I've written. I put a lot of myself when creating the character of Charity Lockwood, and I hope that some of you can see bits and pieces of yourself in other characters as well. x

❝There was nothing more than I craved than the praise that I received for being dubbed as pure perfection. The more I got, the more the burning hunger in me cried for it. I was told I was good for everything - a fallen angel from the very clouds of heaven. It was those same days I'd be granted all of that praise where I'd face the tormenting voice in my head that told me I was good for nothing. Being commended was merely a distraction from that torturous devil that controlled me to the point where I considered it apart of me. ❞ - Charity Lockwood
