Taken. But I Want You

The heart wants what the heart wants. No matter how many times you tell yourself that you're better off without that person, a part of you will never be able to let go.

Everyone has that one person that they always think about, no matter who he or she is with. No matter how much time has passed. This was the case for David "Blue" Jacobs.

At the age of sixteen, Blue's adoptive mother moved him from Greenville, North Carolina, to Washington, D.C. in search of a better life. She thought that she was making a better way for Blue, but she only turned him into more of a monster. But after losing a loved one, Blue decided to straighten up his life and leave the streets alone.

When he left Greenville years ago, he left behind his best friend, Chrystal Alison, who had been wholly dependent on him. Misused, abused, and abandoned, Chrystal turned her life over to the hands of those she thought would help her, finding herself trapped in a lifestyle that she doesn't want to live.

Just when Blue thought it was safe to say that he'd never see Chrystal again, every step he takes seemed to lead him right back to her.

Take a ride with these characters on their journey to recovery, forgiveness, and closure.
