There are 9 parts to The Token series.  I recommend these novellas be read in order:Part 1: The Token 1 - Mick & FarenPart 2: The Token 2 - Mick & FarenPart 3: The Token 3 - Mick & FarenPart 4: The Token 4 - Mick & FarenPart 5: The Token 5 - Mick & FarenPart 6: The Token 6 - Mick & FarenPart 7: The Token 7 - ThornPart 8: The Token 8 - KikiPart 9: The Token 9 - ChetIn The Token, part 1-5 we followed physical therapist, Faren Mitchell when she after being diagnosed with a brain tumor was hit by a Harley Davidson driven by billionaire Jared “Mick” McKenna.  For reasons that will unfold, Faren decided to keep secret both her illness and her working graveyard at one of his strip clubs to pay for her mom’s medical care.  Their budding romance was constantly overshadowed by traumatic pasts, shocking revelations, menacing villains, lies, deceit, secrets, crimes and corruption.The Token, part 6 is the final installment in Mick and Faren’s saga.  We have learned about their painful past as they got to know each while looking for villains.  We have followed them in ups and down trying to piece it all together, but as some questions were answered, new arose.  The time has come for the conclusion; some shocking last developments before the truth comes out, crimes are solved and the final villains revealed.JARED ULYSSES MCKENNA, “MICK”: ~30 years/Billionaire/Mogul/Owner of Gentleman’s clubs/$$$$/Dark auburn hair/dark brown eyes/tattoo.Jared “Mick” McKenna has remained a bit of an enigma throughout.  Seven words to describe Jared: Enigmatic, mysterious, possessive, caring, jaded, elusive and determined.FAREN MITCHELL: 22 years/physical therapist, part-time exotic dancer/caramel blond hair/light gray eyes/5’9”/ex-ballerina/virgin.Faren Mitchell has had my heart from the beginning!  Maybe it’s the combination of her brain tumor diagnosis, slightly deformed hand, innocence, her secrets and past trauma.  Seven words to describe Faren: Lonely, reflective, loyal, broken, innocent, strong and nave.The Token, part 6 has the perfect ending to a long, suspenseful, painful yet hopeful journey.  The rest of serial will follow their friends, starting with part 7- Thorn.Captivating and suspenseful plot!  Eclectic and poignant story-telling. Compelling heroine!
