Let me die, I thought. Please, just let me be with her again. 

Last thing my eyes could make out is the glass driver's seat window shattering as my car made contact with the road. My face is wet, lip is bleeding.

My heart, barely surviving. 




***********************************

    Mark Lucas has learned to just shut down from the world. Shut down his feelings, shut down his heart, and shut down his mind from other people. His parents want him to live on their terms and up to their expectations, expecting high academic performance from him. 

    Lucas does not care anymore, the last thing he wants is to make his father happy. His father who has always been verbally abusive and who suffers from PTSD, a gift from his years in the Military. Everything seems pointless until he meets Olivia Monroe, a girl who's been forced into Isolation from reasons out of her control. The teens confront the values of independence, not being afraid to use their voice, and stop trying to please those that bring them down.

"If you love me, you won't leave me." Jessie has believed those words from her boyfriend, Josh, since senior year of high school. She loves him and doesn't want to leave him. Not even when he shouts at her and hits her. Jessie's best friend, Kolleen, can't stand seeing her in that situation. With a bit of convincing - and the worst beating she'd ever received - Jessie agrees to move into an apartment with Kolleen. But not long after, Jessie is scared the worst of her nightmares will soon become a reality. Josh goes missing, and suddenly Jessie would swear she's being followed. One night changes everything, and one person soon changes Jessie's outlook. A responding officer from that fateful night begins to seek her out, at first claiming it's part of his job. As she spends time with her new friend outside of his job, she starts realizing that her feelings are evolving. After being abused for over a year, Jessie is terrified she's falling in love. What's even more terrifying is that he might be, too. She isn't ready for love. Not yet. She makes up her mind that if he is falling, and if he does love her, he'll wait for her to be ready, and if she loves him, she won't let herself hurt him. Can the words that used to cage her in really be the key to her freedom? --- Featured On: @NA: Take a seat and let it be | Mature Content and 18+ reading list @NA: You deserve the world | Mental Health reading list Ambys Top Picks New Adult 2023

Cara Lynch, the third-born child in a large and turbulent family, has long been the unofficial mother to her five siblings. At just 16, she carries the weight of the world on her shoulders, forced to protect her younger siblings from their abusive father while her disengaged mother offers no help. Despite the chaos at home, Cara finds comfort in her tight-knit group of childhood friends-Hughie Biggs, Gerard Gibson, Patrick Feely, and later, Johnny Kavanagh. But it's Hughie, now 17, who has always been her rock, quietly watching over her and carrying a deep, unspoken affection for her. For years, Hughie has harbored a secret crush on Cara, admiring her strength, resilience, and selflessness from a distance. When Cara is barely 16, their friendship deepens into something more, and their connection blossoms into a tender and fierce love. It's a slow burn, but one that feels inevitable-Hughie has always been there for her, and now, he becomes the one person who shows Cara what it means to be cared for in return. Though Cara is used to protecting others, she's never had anyone to protect her, just her older brother Joey, as Darren left them when he was 18. But Hughie is different. He steps up in ways she never imagined, keeping her secrets, standing by her side, and offering her the kind of unwavering support she's never known. He becomes her safe place, the one constant in her stormy life. As their love grows, Cara begins to feel a sense of security she's never experienced, even as she remains trapped in her toxic home environment.

The powerful conclusion to the SCARS trilogy. Jon finally feels like he has a place where he can get a break from the weight of having to be Pastor Pete's good son. But the opioid pills he's using to manage his pain are changing his behavior in ways he won't be able to hide for much longer. It isn't even his biggest secret: no one knows the real Jon White, and he's terrified if the full truth of himself comes out it will cost both the love of his earthly dad and his heavenly Father. Cary has one last hurdle to leave years of childhood abuse behind him: the trial at which he has to testify against his abuser. But his decision to speak up has splintered the remains of his family and his former best friend seems bent on self-destructing. Cary's going to need everything he's learned along the way to snatch Jon off the ledge. It's never been more obvious the journey from walking wounded to wholeness isn't meant to be travelled alone.
