About Me:
Follow the compelling story of the woman who goes to a plastic surgeon for a mommy-makeover and comes out with a quest that cannot be satisfied. Follow along as this unlikely couple goes to war with their own sensitivities, ethics, and the indescribable draw of raw passion. Will a former "carpenter's delight" (flat as a board) now ridiculously well-endowed woman abandon her senses long enough to sink her teeth into love? Can the prestigious doctor protect a secret he's been hiding for 300 years?

Highlight is an amazing and completely original new book from celebrated best-selling author, Kidd Kraddick, who didn't borrow this completely original idea from anyone and just wants to get young people reading again.
Theres' a moon over Bourbon street tonight
I see faces as they pass beneath the pale lamplight
I've no choice but to follow that call
The bright lights, the people, and the moon and all
I pray everyday to be strong
For I know what I do must be wrong
Oh you'll never see my shade or hear the sound of my feet
While there's a moon over Bourbon street

It was many years ago that I became what I am
I was trapped in this life like an innocent lamb
Now I can only show my face at noon
And you'll only see me walking by the light of the moon
The brim of my hat hides the eye of a beast
I've the face of a sinner but the hands of a priest
Oh you'll never see my shade or hear the sound of my feet
While theres a moon over Bourbon street

She walks everyday through the streets of new orleans
She's innocent and young from a family of means
I have stood many times outside her window at night
To struggle with my instinct in the pale moon light
How could I be this way when I pray to God above
I must love what I destroy and destroy the thing I love
Oh you'll never see my shade or hear the sound of my feet
While theres a moon over Bourbon street

HIGHLIGHT FINAL CHAPTER

When Dr. Ivan Benson entered the Operating Suite, everyone was in place. The anesthesiologist was at the head of the table, supervising Kellie’s breathing. On his left was Dr. Booty flanked by an assistant and the surgical nurse. On the other side of the table, two more assistants and a nurse behind them. Ivan squeezed in between the assistants and faced Dr. Booty. He gave his new partner a slight nod as if to say, “I’m ready” and got no feedback in return.

Dr. Booty pulled back the surgical sh… Continue

HIGHLIGHT Chapter Thirteen

The night before her plastic surgery and Kellie was as nervous as a marshmallow in a bonfire. She hadn’t had anything to eat or drink in three hours, the longest she had ever gone in her entire life without eating. When she finally drifted off to sleep, the dreaming started without delay.
It was a typical dream for Kellie. There were giant dancing sausages with huge smiles, then, lead singers of semi-popular bands ignoring the slutty girls and picking her out of the crowd. But then it morphed in… Continue

HIGHLIGHT Chapter Twelve

Ivan and Mark Kevin were scrubbing up in the intermediary room after another successful surgery. It was only their fourth time to work together but an observer would guess they had been partners for years. For the two surgical nurses who’d been with Dr. Booty for years, the chemistry the two doctors displayed in the O.R. was the second biggest topic of conversation. The hotness of Dr. Benson was number one.
As they ritually removed their sterile latex gloves in tandem and washed their hands, Dr.… Continue

HIGHLIGHT Chapter Eleven

Driving away from the house, Kellie pinched her fingers to the bridge of her nose and tried to suppress a headache. This was all so confusing. Were those two women insane or did they truly believe that her friend Dr. Booty was over 150 years old? That was crazy. Maybe even more idiotic than thinking that reading a book on the radio is a good idea.

But what about the pictures that showed Mark Kevin and Ivan together ten years ago? What about Dr. Booty never aging? What about the strange elixir s… Continue

HIGHLIGHT Chapter Ten

After meeting Dr. Booty’s granddaughter and trying to get over the shock of her age, Kellie was led down a hallway in the sprawling ranch house leading to a large room at the end of the hall. She heard a TV blaring one of those judge shows at an annoyingly high volume.

The two entered a room filled with electronic medical equipment. A cobweb of a tubes and wires led to the center of the room, where a frail woman sat in a wheelchair, seemingly oblivious to the television. To Kellie, she looked l… Continue

Hope you guys enjoyed the book. It was really fun to write.
SPOILER: (Don't read if you haven't finished the story)

To answer one of the most-asked questions, when Kellie was accosted by Ivan in Prague, he was actually biting her, giving her eternal life. She didn't die. She became one of them.

I can't wait all weekend for more of Highlights. Monday can't come fast enough for the thirst to be quenched.... Please don't leave us hanging over Christmas Vacation we need more at least put the chapters online since you will be on a well deserved Vacation. Great job to both Kidd for his great writing abilities and Kellie for being the best narrator ever. Love the show...
