Nirrin (Forestfolk, Book 3) by Zoe_Blessing

Nirrin spends her days in Foresthome caring for orphans, getting into trouble, and listening to other people's adventures with secret envy. Which is why following an intriguing stranger into an unknown part of the forest seemed like a good idea at the time. Nirrin doesn't expect to find her missing parents among a band of odd-looking misfits, but family is family, right? Her hopes to reclaim the kin she'd lost are challenged, however, when she uncovers their violent plot against "Normals" like her. They'll make an exception for her (Nirrin has always been great at exempting herself from rules), but doing nothing would mean endangering her friends in Foresthome. She must stop these outcasts from--who is she kidding? She's a smart-mouthed girl with no special talents. What is she going to do, talk them to death? Maybe babysitting a bunch of other orphans in Foresthome wasn't such a bad deal after all.

We all like to think we'd help those in need, but could you constantly put your life and sanity on the line just to protect people you don't even know? Well she did. In fact, it was sadly her purpose. Like most teenagers who have lost someone, Lucy fell into a less than preferred lifestyle. She had her troubles, like everyone else. But her problems were bigger than she thought, and led to a lot more anguish than she would have liked. See, living under the shadow of great expectations leaves a strain on your self-esteem. Going through a massive revelation could ruin your life and test your limits. The burning pain of sacrifice, loss and death should kill her. The gods saw something in Lucy for a reason, one she just needs to find through a tortuous journey with a bit of clawing, biting and changing. Love will blossom, relationships will be repaired, and her resilience will prevail. *Book one of The Legends*
