“And I really can’t say enough about Kayden Kross and her extraordinary talent as a filmmaker; there’s a very good reason why Drift is up for 10 AVN nominations: the dialogue, the atmosphere, the visuals, the music, and those little onscreen moments that are so profound and beautiful, unexpected and magical. Thank you Kayden and the team at Deeper for taking me along with you on a ride of a lifetime.”Visit Deeper.com to enjoy Ward’s showcase film releases, and SimonandSchuster.com to learn more about her book, Rated X – also available for purchase at Amazon.com.
