I have been an RDA for 30 years. The #1 saying I have heard is "I am scared of the Dentist." I created the photos and wrote this book. My goal is to try and help young or older children, maybe some adults to not be scared to have their teeth checked. And if they have a cavity, don't not fear, the Dentist and their staff want your teeth to gleam.

Her mission is to take down men like me. I figure it’s going to be fun for us both. She’s the kind of girl that has you at hello with that hair, those eyes, and them curves. I’m getting hard just thinking about the first time we met. She told me she was gonna lock me up and throw away the key. Heh, unlikely. Some people flirt by sending roses. Others try cheesy pickup lines. Me? I put explosives under her car. But a chick like Donna? She survives that $h1t and comes back stronger. It’s the kind of relentlessness that makes me realize why I failed in the first place. I don’t want her to die, I want her alive. And all to myself.
