Overview
You Wanna Ride On the Edge? Kristian Aleixo lived the typical life of any young boy who dreamed to one day make it to the big leagues. For Kristian, the occupational hazard of racing brought more near death experiences than his tour of Iraq. But despite the many hardships and challenges he endured to make it to the top, Kristian never fainted or shied away from the thrill of strapping himself to the wheel of a hot-rod, laced with the expectation of taking home the checkered flag. His vision of success parallels that of great racers before him, who no doubt ground out the same pattern of success and failures on their way to the top. The Outside Groove is the autobiographical story that details Kristian's life from the bowels of LeHigh Valley General, where a near death accident almost claimed his life, to the war torn cities of the middle-east. The Outside Groove is the third book in the autobiographical Bestselling My Life In Story series penned by award-winning author Braxton Cosby, that follows the lives of interesting people and their amazing stories of sacrifice and dedication on the road to success.

Author Information
Iraq War Veteran and 2 time U.S. Army Commendation Medal recipient for meritorious achievement, Kristian Aleixo, is a gambler. Once a highly regarded combat helicopter pilot prospect, his ambitions of flying an AH-64 Apache onto the battlefield were shattered with a diagnosis of Type 1 diabetes while on tour in Iraq. With his new chronic illness, this gambler bet on himself, using the same hand-eye coordination and reflexes that would have made him a pilot, to chase down his teenage dream of being a professional race car driver. Without a name like Andretti or karting experience in adolescence, he's had to risk more than most to sit at this table. Bestselling Author, Braxton A. Cosby is a dreamer who transitioned his ideas on pen and paper to pixels and keyboards. He tells stories that evoke emotion and stimulate thought. THE STARCROSSED SAGA and THE SCHOOL OF MINISTRY are currently two Young Adult/New Adult series he created along with the Amazon Bestselling My Life In Story Series with Mike Clemons and three time Olympic Gold Medalist Gail Devers.
