"I had long since stopped caring about this 'father' who I had no memory of, and to be honest I'd stopped caring about my life altogether. All I wanted to do was get away, back to my latest book..."
For seventeen-year-old Charlie, reality has never been easy, living with her controlling monster of a stepfather, and the cold shell of a woman who used to be her beautiful, loving mother. Which is why she seeks refuge in books- fantasies and fairy tales where she can step into another world altogether, away from this unfair one.
Suddenly, everything is changing as she's abruptly sent away to live with her father, with no explanation of the mystery she's leaving behind. In the small town of Redhaven, she's finally learning who she is and how to be herself.
But can she stay there, naive and innocent forever?
Or will her past finally catch up with her, throwing everything into chaos?
