Today I Give Up Trying

The last thing Miranda thought when she responded to a prison pen pal request was to find true love. Joel, well, he was only hoping to pass time and maybe if he was lucky, he'd find someone to have a little fun with after doing ten years of hard time in the state penitentiary for a crime he committed when he had just barely turned eighteen years old. He had been hardened by the things he'd seen and the experiences of imprisonment and no longer believed in lovey dovey fairy tales or happily ever after. So hardened in fact, that he knew women only led to one thing-trouble. Not even a good girl like Miranda would break him ever again. Not with her long dark hair, those hypnotizing amber-eyes, and definitely not those full lips that would look so good…nope, nope, nope. What neither one expected was to find the perfect balance of emotional and physical attraction. Can Miranda's persistence and commitment soften and heal Joel's untrusting heart or will Joel break Miranda in ways she has never experienced before? This is the first book of three in the Locked-Up Lovers series. Enjoy!

Para wala ng gumagawa ng masama para lang may mauwing pagkain sa hapag? Bakit kaya may mga mahihirap na katulad ko? Bata pa lang ako. Iyon na palagi ang tinatanong ko sa sarili ko. Kung bakit may mga mahirap na kagaya ko. Masama ba akong tao sa nakaraan kong buhay at pinaparuhasan Niya ako't ang pamilya ko ng ganito? Ewan ko. Basta ang alam ko lang na tinatak ko sa isip ko ng magdalaga ako- hindi titigil ang mundo sa 'yo kung patuloy at patuloy mo lang iisipin kung gaano kahirap ang buhay. Hindi uulan ng pera kapag hiniling mo. At mas lalong hindi magiging magaan ang buhay mo kung puro hiling ka lang sa Kanya at walang kasamang pagbabanat ng buto. Natuto ako sa mahirap na paraan. At iyon ang ginagamit ko ngayon na sandata araw-araw sa malupit at madilim na mundo na ginagalawan ko ngayon. "KEISHA! Ikaw na ang sasalang sa stage! Bilisan mo na!
