What most don&#8217;t know is that occasionally a pair of shoes is warped, beyond any kinks normal to this special store.<\/p>\n<p>Those shoes end up in the irregulars box and that box has inadvertently ended up in the back of a truck two kids are carrying donations for charity in.<\/p>\n<p>After trying some shoes on, Dean and his girlfriend Riley may be discovering all new twists to their relationship.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.smashwords.com\/books\/view\/453869\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Find it on Smashwords now!<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B00LGA7LPA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Now On Amazon!<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Ordinarily the man at the Shoe Shop in the mall personally assists customers in finding the best fit. Whether his assistance helps them discover their true passions or take steps into new dominance and confidence, sales always end up with the customer thoroughly pleased.<\/p>\n<p>This time, however, no sales are made and the shoes which find their way into being worn were never intended to be sold in the first place. After discovering that a box of irregulars has mysteriously disappeared, the man consults with his top employee, the sometimes overstimulated Emily. Her explanation that she gave the box of damaged shoes to a couple of kids collecting for the homeless causes more than just his usual raised eyebrow.<\/p>\n<p>This is a situation the man has never prepared for, knowing and soon explaining to Emily that the particular shoes the Shoe Shop sells are not typical by any means. They have unique abilities, unique properties, and those properties are completely warped on the ones tossed into the irregulars box.<\/p>\n<p>Now they must track down the ones who took the box, recover the shoes, and hopefully prevent what is already going to be impossible to prevent.<\/p>\n<p>Dean and his girlfriend Riley are not too thrilled about the punishment handed down to them, forced to go all over town collecting clothing and stuff for the homeless. Charity work was never their thing, each more interested in each other than everyone else.<\/p>\n<p>While they might be rebellious seniors about to graduate high school, Dean and Riley are truly dedicated to each other and for the most part good kids. All that may change when they take a break from their chore of collecting clothing to go into the woods far from anyone else, to their special spot.<\/p>\n<p>This is a nice private spot, a place the two of them can be alone, and naturally this is where Riley has the fun idea of looking through the shoes they collected. As they reason, it&#8217;s not like anyone else will ever know if they just take a pair or two for themselves before delivering.<\/p>\n<p>Dean is all laughs when he mentions that his petite girlfriend Riley never had the real pair he&#8217;d be interested in, but after she finds some bright red sneakers, everything quickly takes a turn for the bizarre.<\/p>\n<p>By the time the man tracks down the lost box of irregulars, three things are very clear. Riley will never be petite again, Dean will never lack aggression when it comes to being kinky, and neither of them will likely be looking into further education.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.smashwords.com\/books\/view\/453869\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Find it on Smashwords now!<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B00LGA7LPA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Now On Amazon!<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Everyone knows that the man in the mall sells powerful shoes, unique and not to be worn casually.
