The Association - Mason Judy Kentrus

Mason Trent has lived his life through the written word. As an investigative reporter, he's seen and experienced horrors that have caused lingering nightmares. Three months as a prisoner of the Magellan Cartel convinced him to change his risky lifestyle and take over the Beacon Pointe Gazette, his family-owned newspaper. He's suffered threats from his past since he was a teenager and has firsthand knowledge that escaping one's past is impossible. The one beautiful person in his life is Mollie, the girl he's loved since high school. She's his constant, his anchor and is always there for him. His world is shattered when she sends him a Dear John letter. Mollie Anderson has loved Mason since they were in high school. Until a few months ago, she was "content" in their long-time relationship. To him, she's that old comfortable shoe, but she wants more. For a man who lives his life through words, there's one he's never used - commit. She's tired of waiting and decides to show him what life is like without 'Dependable Moll'. THE ASSOCIATION. The carefree lives of four sixteen-year-olds were changed forever when they witness a cold-blooded murder. Everett, Jackson, Mason and Ryder, The Association, have shared dark secrets since they were in high school. Blackmail was a reminder their lives were under close scrutiny while they achieved success in their chosen professions. As adults, they decide 'no more.' As they start their investigation into the murder, they have no idea how their lives have been manipulated by their unknown enemy.
