It Can Happen To You: Volume 1 contains three short stories that will blow you away.
S&M (Sexts & Messaging) - a cautionary tale of what happens when an online friendship turns into obsession.
THE ID - After meeting Chazz, Nya thinks she has found the love of her life until he vanishes with no trace. When she uncovers the truth of his disappearance, she realizes her life will never be the same.
ORGANIZED KARMA - Destinee and Tracy have been friends for years, but as they get older their lives take them on two different paths.
I really enjoyed reading this selection. Author Phette Ogburn does an excellent job in writing characters you can related to. After reading the first story, this author grabbed my attention from beginning to end. The only issue I had with this selection was Organized Karma, I felt that story was added as a filler to complete the book.
Phette Ogburn is definitely an author to watch out for. I will definitely recommend this book.

Phette (pronounced fee-ett) Ogburn was born in Wayne, Michigan in 1975. According to her mother's accounts, and some of her own, before she was five years old, she was reciting television shows, movies and commercials -verbatim, which is something she still does today and has somehow passed down to both of her children. She has been keeping a journal since she was 19 years old, and loves referring to them from time-to-time for reflection. Included in her list of things she loves are: family, writing, reading, pizza, sweets, movies, drama shows, natural hair and tattoos. She released her first book IT CAN HAPPEN TO YOU, a series of short stories, August 29, 2011. She's currently working on a novel, a short film and more short stories.
