So as Cassidy helps him get the junky garage ready for a sale where nothing will even have a price, any price good, he is planning on selling it all.<\/p>\n<p>But when pulling out a large trunk, knowing the contents might be one of the few items buyers may be actually interested in, curiosity might just cost Nathan his friend in a way he never imagined. When Cassidy asks what was stored so safely in the old trunk, Nathan pops the latch and reveals the item his dad obsessed the most over&#8230; what he called Pandora&#8217;s Urn.<\/p>\n<p>Just like everything his dad collected, it almost sounds familiar, but not quite, and just like his dad who is now being cared for in a facility upstate, the story behind Pandora&#8217;s Urn is probably a little crazy.<\/p>\n<p>As Nathan explains it, best he can recall from his dad&#8217;s rantings, Pandora&#8217;s Box which everyone knew of contained only hope, but Pandora&#8217;s Urn was said to hold the sanity of reality and possibility. As long as the urn remained shut, human sanity was kept safe, but if opened, nothing was sane, and reality lost all order.<\/p>\n<p>Finding it all rather interesting but unusual, Cassidy wonders if Nathan shouldn&#8217;t contact a museum about the urn, but Nathan finds himself thinking about where a crazy guy like his dad may have hidden away some cash&#8230; and stuffing it in an old ceramic urn seems entirely possible. Popping the lid, the two stare into the darkness&#8230; never suspecting there may have actually been some truth to this one crazy collectible of his dad&#8217;s.<\/p>\n<p>But after breathing in thick dust from the old urn, will Nathan and Cassidy be breathing out the last of their sanity? Will each of them find the craziest ideas about boosting sales&#8230; or will Nathan just decide to sell his friend Cassidy instead? And selling her might be one thing; what about selling opportunities to do things to her and with her? But when sanity escapes and reality loses all order for them both&#8230; just what will be possible with Cassidy&#8217;s tight little body? <\/p>\n<p>Find out in the Coverswap Shorty of April, which puts a whole new spin on the cover originally featured in the twisted tale You Asked For It, and presents the brand new tale of a guy with a crazy dad and a crazy hot friend Selling it ALL to have a little fun and make a lot of money fast.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.smashwords.com\/books\/view\/1388079\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Find it on Smashwords now!<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B0C441ZBJ7\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Now On Amazon!<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When Nathan asked Cassidy to help him organize a sale to get rid of his crazy dad&#8217;s junk, neither knew one piece of junk would drive them crazy too.
