ABOUT THE BOOK:
Tormented while growing up
for being dark-skinned, and the son of a womanizer who deserts his
family regularly, Ken Ferguson longed for that feeling of being
loved. Ken promised himself that he wouldn’t be a manipulating,
deceitful man like his father, but after being cheated on and dumped
by the girl he thought he would one day marry, he begins his
transformation. Fueled by anger, and tired of being the “nice guy”,
Ken drowns himself in one-night stands, threesomes, affairs with
married women, and sleeping with one conquest after another. He
adopts the philosophy of having no commitment and no attachments, but
meets his match with Ashley, a girl that makes him want to stop his
promiscuous ways. But Ashley turns out to do even more damage to his
ego and his heart, wounding him deeply. With his philosophy
reinforced, Ken spirals out of control and becomes a MONSTER.
Sleeping with and mistreating random women he meets at bars and
clubs, Ken uses sex to forget about his insecurities, his anger, and
his sadness. Will Ken learn to let go of his heartbreaks, or will he
be consumed by them and continue to be a MONSTER?

EXCERPT -
.
The head board is
hitting the wall in my bedroom. Loud moans, heavy breathing, and
sounds of the bed creaking are permeating the room. I’m in a
trance. Krissy is experiencing both ecstasy, and pain as I’m doing
her doggie style. With each thrust I wanted to go through her. I
wanted her to feel the pain that I was feeling. The whole time, all I
could think about was Ashley. Every thrust, I wanted to kill the
weakness that I felt. I wanted to callous that soft spot in my heart
that I had for her. Krissy tried to turn her head to look at me, but
I pulled her by her hair. I didn’t want to be looked at. I couldn’t
even look at myself right now.
“Oh my god Ken, Oh my
…”
Krissy came, and cursed
loudly. I pumped away, harder and faster until I came. We lay in the
bed together panting.
“Ken”
“Yeah”
“Are you ok?”
“I’m good…why?”
“I… I just worry
about you. You scare me sometimes.”
“Why?”
