Adoptive parents Robert and Maya Novak are firm but fair with fourteen-year-old Anne. Due to a past of unstable homes and abusive guardians, she is reluctant to accept the unconditional love the Novaks give. Between the walls of their New England cape cod, she is given patience, the freedom to be herself. and discipline as she needs it. Unwittingly, she softens under their guidance and learns to let down the walls she's kept for a lifetime. Perhaps she's even learning to love Robert and Maya.
A/N: I started this series when I was 16 years old in 2018. The quality of writing improves as the chapters go on, especially as I got my bearings in my own relationships and learned how people really interact. I will not edit or revise these older chapters because I'd like my readers to know that it does get better! (But only with practice) This series is not in chronological order.

Yours Truly, Ramona
Life doesn't abide by the rules of a child. Sixteen-year-old Ramona knows this. She's seen it throughout her entire life, from the way she was treated by her birth parents to the way she was thrown around the foster system with nothing but her little brother, Mason, to hold onto. Every bruised cheek and broken bone has slowly shattered Ramona's trust in the system and any foster parent she's ever met. In the end, it's only Mason she can trust. Her life is dedicated to making his better, and focused solely on sheltering him from the pain of feeling as lonely as she is. That is, until Ramona gets news one day that may just uproot everything she's ever believed about her and Mason's situation. Everything is about change for Mason, all because of a man named Owen Parker. He wants to take the only thing that Ramona has ever truly loved. He wants to adopt her brother, and there is nothing she can do to stop him. Though after years of running and years of pain, Ramona knows just how badly Mason needs a home. It's a breath of fresh air for him, a family filled with love, and everything that Mason has never had. But then, what about Ramona? She's brotherless, parentless, and alone in a city that has never cared about her. She has to find a way to cope, and she has to find a way to forgive the man who took her little boy from her. But she can't cope, she can't forgive, and she can only bend so many times before she breaks. - - Warning: This story deals with mature content that may be difficult for some to read, such as self-harm, suicide, drug use, abuse, depression, anxiety, and sexual harassment. - - Highest Ranks: |#1| - adopted |#1| - fosterkid |#1| - fostercare |#1| - foster |#1| - suicideawareness |#1| - recovery |#1| - comingofage |#1| - mentalillness |#1| - strength |#2| - adoption
