Ryan Lewis is known as a lot of things: a wife, a mother, a co-worker. However, the one thing she is not known as is weak. At 27 years old, she has gone through more than most people will in their entire life. When her past begins to creep up on her, will she give up or will she emerge resilient?
This story follows Ryan, her wife Eden, and their two adopted children, Blake and Zuri. Resilient explores topics such as homophobia, racism, mental health, and bigotry. I do not recommend this story for children under the age of 16 and this story is marked as mature.
