#WeWriWa Teaser 9 Naughty Fairy Tale - Jack and the Jean Stock #8Sunday



Here's the next 10 from Jack and the Jean Stock. Last week, we left poor Jack holding the goods when an overly touchy feely cop showed up on scene. Here's what happens next...

The cop reached into Jack’s pocket and retrieved the drugs. 

“Not again. I told you to stay the fuck away from here.”

“I know, but she needs them, man. Give me a break … please?”

“I cut you a break the last time. And the time before that. I can’t keep doin’ this, Jack.”

The click of the cuff and the touch of cold steel on his wrist sent Jack’s hopes dwindling. He’d run out of luck.



Blurb:


Strapped for cash and drowning in his ailing mother’s medical debt, the one bright spark in Jack Castor’s life is working his dream job for a specialty clothing manufacturer that caters to large men. Although his personal life is all but nonexistent, career-wise, he thrives under the tutelage of his friend and father-like mentor, Cronus Gigandet, a gigantic man with a heart to match. But when Cronus dies suddenly, the company’s future is thrown into uncertainty.

Titan Gigandet, Cronus’ wayward son, a giant of a man in his own right, is furious when he learns his father has included his upstart protégé, Jack, in his will, leaving him equal shares in the family-run factory. Reluctantly, Titan rescinds his own self-imposed exile and returns to a company in turmoil.
 
The gloves come off, and the major players fight for control. With the shareholder’s agreement about to run out, decisions concerning the business need to be made, and quick. But Jack and Titan clash at every turn. The pair is so at odds, the quarrels rapidly become physical, but fists soon give way to angry, forbidden kisses. Though the blazing new attraction does nothing to quell the antagonism or distrust between them.
 
While battling to save the company, Jack’s mother takes a turn for the worse. Just when it seems like all hope is lost, Titan unearths a stunning find.
 
Could this new discovery be Jack’s ‘golden goose’ or just the beginning of the end to everything Jack holds dear?

  1. The drugs, of course, are for "her". I'm not at all sure I believe him about that.
