Book excerpt: 45,824 words (about 183 pages in print): When Javy Sanchez was born premature, the doctors did not think he would live long enough to breathe the outside air. The day his beautiful Puerto Rican mother Rosa Sanchez took him home was a day of celebration. He had beaten the odds and been given a chance at life. Fast forward 19 years later, and Javy is fresh out of high school. He lives in Orlando, FL with his mother and her neurotic orange Pomeranian, Roberto. Javy spends a lot of his time with his best friend, Seth Watson, a troublemaker with a carefree disposition. Javy is motivated to move to California and become a film maker, but Seth has no direction. What Seth does have is a secret, a secret that will cause their friendship to come to a screeching halt. Meanwhile, Javy meets a girl named Alison in a coffee shop and experiences a deep infatuation for her he has never experienced before. While contemplating how he will make his move, he meets his mom's new friend, Lana, at a dinner party and has a secret fling with her that sets in motion a series of chaotic events that will change the lives of everyone around him forever. In the middle of it all is the anchor which keeps his mother grounded, the aging Pomeranian Roberto. A sudden change in Roberto's behavior leads to a discovery that further unravels the small family at its seams. I Know This World Is Killing You is a book about love and lust, life and death, the price we pay for the secrets we keep, and how the ways in which we process pain determines how high we fly or how low we go.
