EBOOK
About
It's 1985 America, and for six years overworked federal protection agent Larry Lawson has kept a handful of Exceptionals secret, safe, and living ordinary, tax-paying lives. Exceptionals have exceptional abilities that make them, well, exceptional…and targets for The Opposition-a secret organization bent on turning them into lab rats and their abilities into high-grade, high-priced pharmaceuticals.
Of the five Exceptionals on his caseload, lone wolf Larry is most fond of spunky, punky, girl-with-perfect-balance Julia. She's like the headache-inducing daughter he never had. When agency archives are breached, Larry is ordered to relocate Julia yet again. But this girl's done running. She's got a boyfriend, a part-time gig at a record shop, and public disputes with professors to enjoy. She. Will. Not. Move. Torn between doing his job or breaking Julia's heart, Larry applies some unconventional, possibly immoral, and probably illegal tactics to keep her safe while still letting her rush a sorority.
Just as Larry's anxiety level dips, an Opposition hit team arrives led by the one man Larry fears-the one man who's knowledge of Larry's past could shatter everything between him and Julia. Now Larry will need all his skill-and the help of his jilted, black belt ex-fiancé, a teen radical opposed to corporate corn, and the chemically dependent yet oddly resourceful campus custodial crew-to hold on to Julia, confront the demons of his past, and kick some Opposition butt
