If his seventeen years of experience has taught Craig Lawton only one thing, its this:
Life is too damn precious to throw away
Its like, you know those dreams?
Performing on a stage to a full audience?
When youre in the spotlight, and you look down—
And you realise youre completely naked?
Caught off-guard without a script.
No lines.
No cues.
No curtain-call.
Thats me. All the time.
Ever since I was caught out and exposed.
Betrayed. Shamed. Ruined.
By someone I should never have trusted.
I made one reckless mistake; it cost me everything.
My school. My friends. And my freedom.
Mum wouldnt look at me.
Dad took control of me.
I flipped the page and started fresh.
But still, that wasnt enough.
Theres nothing I can do now thatd ever be enough.
Its at rock bottom that Sebastian Davis finds me.
Im his worst nightmare. Hes my best hope.
The ground has not been steady beneath my feet for so long
Ive forgotten how it feels.
And no matter his resistance
Sebastian seems fated to remind me.
