Hello lovelies,
Welcome to my new blog! I thought I needed a new look so I’ve made a new banner as my header and changed my colour-scheme. All in all, I’ve had a bit of a makeover with help from ange de l’aube. I can’t say how much I appreciate her help with this, but I will say that I flove her!
I hope that you like it. I’m not sure if you’d be interested, but you can now subscribe to the blog so that you’re alerted when I update.

A Pound of Flesh
"Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending."
A Pound of Flesh, written by jaxon22, was recommended to me recently by some of my twitter friends who told me that I simply had to read it and I am more than glad that I took their advice.
Isabella is a teacher intent on giving back to the community, driven by memories of her admirable father. Her determination takes her to the Arthur Kill Correctional Facility in New York. Her journey to give back may cause her to give more than she ever bargained for.
Edward, the bad boy incarnate, is an inmate at Arthur Kill. He’s angry and full of hate for a world that has let him down. He has walls around his heart more impenetrable than the prison walls around him but Isabella won a place there fifteen years ago in exceptional circumstances – he just needs to see her for who she really is.
Edward and Bella are at first impassioned in their prejudice and frustrated by their unwanted mutual sexual attraction. They are more alike than they realise however, each carry a weight that has dictated their lives, even if it has driven them in different directions – both have their debt to pay.
jaxon22 has created an intricate plot with intelligent emotional insight woven with interesting literary discussions and greater moral life lessons. This is truly a captivating read. I am not doing it justice (no pun intended) go check it out and see for yourself at
