Troubledpast Stories

With a drug lord for a father and an addict for a mother, Jade Taylor was dealt a pretty shabby hand in life. Her childhood was spent in a constant state of fear, her only solace being her two half-sisters -- Charlotte and Bailey -- who were forced to live the nightmare alongside her. But things all changed when their father got sent to prison. Eight new social workers and five foster families later, the girls finally found their home. Now, at eighteen, Jade is counting down the days until her exams are over, excited to spend a stress-free summer with her boyfriend, her two best friends, and her forever family. Unfortunately, things don't always go to plan -- not in a town like Greencliff.

And when she catches the eye of Lucas Coleman, the eldest of the brothers, it's only a matter of time before she falls. Only one questions remains: Which way will she land?
