Pure fiction. I've never been to Monterey, although, I have had to run to preserve my life on a few occasions.

Strictly fiction, of course, but he knew that getting involved with this woman would change his life...and probably not for the better. Too many times that happens!

I'd say! I've never been to Monterey, but I've met a few women I had to escape from in my time!
