DOWNLOAD EBOOKIf becoming an adult was a race and the junior class was Riley Wyman's competition, he would be dead last. He's never had a job, he doesn't know how to drive, and he has absolutely zero ideas for his future, which is not the case for any of his friends. He isn't even in any clubs in school or anything. All he does is wake up, go to school, do his homework, spend time with his friends, and go to sleep. He's tried dating but none of the girls have ever really stuck, and he isn't sure what's wrong with him. Overall, he feels lost. Then, he meets Jacob Wayne, who kisses him at a party and throws Riley's whole world for a loop. He starts questioning himself, and his social circle increases in a way that makes his already dizzying situation, dizzier. Through mistrust and experimentation, Riley does his best to navigate high school, himself, and the fragile relationships that come and go with adolescence.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe author exerts his “writer’s privilege” taking a factual situation (The surrender of Japan to Allied forces to end World War II) and fanaticizes writing a future story involving people, places, inventions, and potential events which take place over a century and dramatically affect the life and power of two nations. It is a story of future happenings which still could possibly occur should small changes be made to current political, cultural, and economic trends. The writer apologizes for any coincidences that portray any present or future individuals or corporate entities which may be identified or be in some way responsible or related to the events, as this story is intended to be a fictional novel created for its dramatic effect and is not intended to idolize, criticize, or demean individuals or businesses that may exist or can participate in future events.
