The Game - Short Story from The Greatest Love Series - Amanda Prowse

It's every mother's worst nightmare.....

Gemma Peters has everything a sixteen year old could want. Two loving parents, a good school, and close friends. Maybe sometimes her parents are a little overbearing, a little too adoring. But that's the same for all teenagers, right?

Then, on the night of the school play, happy-go-lucky Gemma disappears without a trace. Where has she gone? Why has she been lying to her family? And, most importantly, will she ever come home?

This is another of Amanda Prowse short story written for Kindle,  I like Amanda's writing, she writes about everyday issues and how they affect every day people.  In this story she writes about every parents worst nightmare 'your teenager goes missing'.  She tackles the issue of young girls being taken in by older men, who convince these young girls that they are in love with them. And, that once they have enough money they will move to the country, almost the cottage with roses around the door, when in reality they are exploiting these young women and forcing them into a way of life that no parent would want for their daughter.  I suppose you have to ask the question can you love your children too much.  I am yet to find a bad thing to say about Amanda Prowse and would recommend this short story to you.
