Youthful Distractions ebook

It was the summer of 66, of youthful rebellion, of new found freedoms. Unbeknown to Joe and his friends, they were on the cusp of leaving behind their rebellious ways and embarking on the long and sometimes perilous road of life. Bob, best friend of Joe, youngest of the bunch, worked hard in the building game, played even harder, no thoughts for what the future held. Jim, the only one to go to grammar school and it showed. Fed up with his chosen career, he wanted more out of life, but in what direction? Terry, oldest by a couple of years, got caught out whilst still in his teens. Married with two kids, another on the way. Some people would say he was trapped, but a little thing like marriage never stopped Terry. Friday night started like every other weekend, but before Monday rolled around, Joe's life changed in a moment. A simple glance across the dance floor, catching the eye of Grace, the most stunning woman he'd ever seen, was just the beginning of a journey shrewn with love, friendships, heartache, deceit, blackmail, betrayal, prison and finally murder.
