Bikini Baristas Serial Novel

This is one of my favorite chapters. I had a blast writing it because I got to sneak in some sailing. In this chapter Chris learns of Clayton's escape from juvie, Dick Jr. suspects Karen of killing his dad and Clayton is on the loose on Camano Island again.

By this point, the story is rolling along. If you're not into the story yet, I missed the target.

Bikini Baristas Chapter 11

So, how am I doing? Is the story holding your interest? Did you like the sailing scene? I snuck it in because I really wanted to write a sailing scene and I thought it was a cool way for Chris to find out about Clayton's escape.

How do you like Abe Weinstein? Is he a despicable enough sleazy lawyer? Is Dick Jr. scuzzy enough?

I'm starting to get feedback from my beta readers. I am amused because one of the readers thought that Clayton wasn't believable. No sixteen year old kid could do all of the stuff I have him doing. Well, REALITY CHECK here folks, I didn't make this up. The real-life model for Clayton really did all of this stuff. As they say, truth is stranger than fiction.
