Book Cover & Preview Text
I slowly began to open my heavy green eyes. Oh, what a headache! Why was my head pounding like a freight train? I looked around the small, dimly lit room I was trying to wake up to, but I was groggy and everything was blurry. It was an unfamiliar room, though; that much I could tell. There was very little light coming in from outside, so it must be almost nightfall. Where were all my personal things? What happened to the pictures on the walls? Why wasn't the window where it should be? What the heck was going on? With a great deal of effort, and feeling very disoriented, I struggled to sit up a little more in the strange bed. I was in a hospital room! What was I doing here? I did feel like I had slept a little too long and still couldn't quite wake up, but I was otherwise a healthy 27-year-old woman who certainly had no need for doctors or hospitals! I soon found out that nothing could be further from the truth.
