Amara Bennett used to believe in fairy tales. Living on Australia's Gold Coast, dating the most charming guy in town, and studying creative media at uni - life looked perfect from the outside. But behind the sun-kissed smiles and Instagram posts, Lockie James had a grip on her heart... and her freedom. He was deeper. He was better. He was a lie. What began as love became control. His words cut. His jealousy burned. And every time she tried to speak, he shut her down. But Amara's done hiding. Done faking it. This is the part when she breaks free. With the help of her best friend Harper and a quiet stranger named Eli, Amara runs. But leaving him is just the beginning - now she must battle the voices in her head, the flashbacks in her dreams, and the truth in her heart: she doesn't need him. She never did. This is the part when she says, "I don't want ya." This is the part when she becomes stronger than she's ever been. This is the part when she breaks free.

My story, as told by me. Sage was born into an unhealthy household and when her parents were too preoccupied to raise her, the internet never failed to step in, the Bayside highlights the reality of being a young girl in the early 2010s and the predatory behaviours that were exhibited.

Every time that I wake up in the middle of the night, in cold sweat, wondering if what I did to save myself was the right thing to do or not, I remind myself that had I not done it, there would be 12 blood-covered photos instead of 11 and twelve dead bodies instead of ELEVEN. We often find ourselves talking about the people who leave us, hating them because they refused to love us. But my story is about the ones who refuse to leave even when asked to, who hold us captive with their love, against our will. A story of abuse, torture, blood and gore all simply christened as 'a father's love'.

She was trapped by his love, his lies, and his hands. But even in the bruises and the silence, she found her strength. This is her story - raw, real, and brave.
