ALTAMONTE SPRINGS, Fla., Nov. 2, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- From Prince Lawrence Onyiuke comes the much-awaited second volume of his book series, Please Never Leave Me. In this sequel, he unravels the story of John after he kills someone and flees town, and continues the story of Pauline and Chris from the first book. This time, he weaves a riveting fiction that portrays the harsh realities of life-leaving home and cutting all communications, starting anew and trying to survive each day, and carrying guilt on one's shoulders.
Fourteen-year-old John leaves his family and town to avoid being captured by the law because of a crime he did: under extreme provocation, killed the man who caused his mother's death and abused his dead mother. With only a backpack with important personal documents and a good sum of money his father has given him, he embarks on a long journey that would eventually lead him to discover the person he is made of and the strength of his spirit. After several rides and stops, he finally arrives in the town of Benin, where no one knows him. This means new town, new people, and new life. He is tough and rough, has no fear, comes from a deeply religious home, and is good academically, so he believes he would survive it all, no matter what and how difficult the challenges may be. He will meet different people, encounter various hardships, and try to make it on his own. But will he be strong enough to overcome everything, return to see his family again, and end up well and successful? An engaging and poignant plot awaits readers in Please Never Leave Me Volume II.
Prince Onyiuke invites readers to embark on a stirring journey that reveals the power and will of the human spirit. Please Never Leave Me Volume II gives a glimpse of the odyssey of a young man who is forced to face circumstances and deal with situations too burdensome for his adolescent age and of a love between two people who are willing to endure whatever comes their way.
Meanwhile was Pauline ever able to meet up with Chris again?
