Book Cover & Preview Text
At 17, Jane was not a beauty or the type of young girl that turned heads. In fact, she was rather plain looking with dirty blond hair and brown eyes. Having been through some difficult years growing up, she had learned at an early age to be very independent and self-reliant, with a great determined spirit. Young men she met were not always at ease with her strong independent attitude. However, she had a quick wit and a sensuality about her that seemed to attract and challenge many of them, so she did not lack for the attention of men.
Jane loved to have a good time. She was very bold and flirted with the local men, whenever the right opportunity presented itself. As she matured, she was very aware of her own sexuality, and how easily she attracted the opposite sex, and on some occasions, perhaps the wrong kind.
