Laura's world just turned upside down: Mom's gone. James is doing drugs. Dad's losing his mind. Even little Sasha has to grow up faster. Nathan is the boy she loves... but circumstances stand in their way. Laura thinks losing her mother is the worst pain she'd ever know. She is wrong. Grief cracks her world open, and betrayal seeps in where love once lived. The boy she trusted, the future she imagined, the safety she believed in-all slip through her fingers at the same time. Now, surrounded by memories that hurt and truths no one will explain, Laura must learn how to survive a life that keeps taking from her. But some wounds refuse to stay buried... and some hearts don't know how to let go. When she left, everything changed. The question is-will Laura break, or will she find the strength to walk away from the pain that still calls her name?
