Luke was an unwanted child. The attention poured onto his older brother's after his mom's passing made that all too clear. His family dislike him. It only became more obvious when he was sent thousands of miles away to America to be 'reshaped' into a better, normal person. Not a freak like people called him in the hallways. Not a psychopath like his stepmother calls him. But in the end, what can you do when people drive you to your tipping point? Do you bend to their will... or do you break?

With five overprotective older brothers, you'd think he'd be safe. You'd think someone would notice. But Xander's been hiding more than just skipped meals and forced smirks. He's been hiding the truth. He can't tell them. Not about him. Never. But secrets don't stay buried forever.

All rights reserved. This work may not be reproduced, copied, or distributed without permission. ***************************************** At its heart, The Rays of Hope is about what it means to heal. A boy fighting cancer while old grudges close in around him. A girl growing up without the love she deserved, learning to find her own worth despite everything. A brother who loses himself trying to hold onto the one person he can't bring back. A young man shouldering his family's world before he's had the chance to live his own. A teenager whose love for someone became a wound she carried across oceans - and a career that gave her enemies. A girl caught between loyalty and survival, standing in the gap for someone who has no one else. These characters don't have perfect lives. But they have each other - and sometimes, that's where hope begins.
