About the Author
To all the GEBs and custom earmuffs out there, this is for you.
Thanks Torri!
I started writing this book before the decision to overturn Roe v. Wade was made.
It’s not lost on me that this book addresses abortion and is set in Texas.
I hope Kai and Olivia’s story can be a safe place for women everywhere to sit in their feelings and know we are not alone.
Women are the most powerful creatures on the planet, which is why someone is always trying to take our control away. But just remember, ladies…
…this our pussy we can do what we want.

Kai
“Hello?”
“Hi, Kai.” That voice. It’s cold and distant, a tone I’ve never heard directed toward me, but fuck if it doesn’t still light a fire inside of me.
