** Desperate to escape unspeakable abuse 16 year old Charlie Newman flees her hometown of Rockford, Illinois. Finding peace in the small North Carolina town in which she settles Charlie feels free for the first time since she can remember. But escaping does not mean she has healed from what's happened and the mess she left behind hasn't cleaned itself up just 'cause she's gone. How long will it be before it all catches up with her? And will someone finally be there to save her once it does? **
This is a story I've been writing and rewriting for close to 6 years. It's definitely the longest piece of work I've ever written and I'm incredibly proud of it. Despite how long I've been working on it, it's still incomplete. I wanted to share the beginning to see what you guys think and hopefully encourage myself to push through and continue. I know it's an incredibly long first chapter! I originally had them broken up into flashbacks at different parts of the book but thought that might get confusing so I published them together as backstory to start. If you liked my previous book "Shattered", this should be one you enjoy too.

Logan
*TW* Contains topics and scenes of sexual assault, self-harm, abuse.* "You know you loved every second of it," I can feel the tears welling up as well as the anger building up within me. I stare at him for a while before I have to turn away from his hungry gaze. "Look I just came here to tell you that I forgive you for what you did back in Cali and I'll take you back," "You forgive me?" I yell. "I did nothing to you. You raped me! You fucking raped me! You have no right to come here and tell me that. You. Forgive. Me. You traumatized me. What you did to me tore me up inside and was eating away at me until I tried to kill myself. And when I told people they didn't believe me. I had to listen to so many people talk about how great a guy you were and how I clearly just regretted sleeping with you. You are a monster. You made me hate myself for something that was never my fault. You have caused me so much pain and suffering," I pause to take a deep breath. "So you don't get to come here to my school and tell me you forgive me. You don't get to make me feel bad about coming forward. The only thing I regret is ever thinking you were a good person." _____________________________________________ Logan Young is a 16-year-old girl about to start her senior year in a brand new town.

Hope
Kate was used to dealing with unfair consequences. Having a less than ideal home life and no one else to support her, she had learned to deal with things on her own. She had learned not to feel and especially not to hope. So when someone new comes into her life Kate does the best thing she can think of, she shuts them out. But, after a series of events in the course of one day, they are thrown back together, and Kate is given the chance to explain herself. Explain why she was so guarded and why she had closed herself off in the first place. And maybe along the way Kate learns that things aren't always so bad. That feeling and hoping aren't the worst things in the world. ***Warning: Mention of abuse is included in this story. Please don't read if that is a trigger for you in any way. Hope you enjoy the story. Feel free to leave comments and/or suggestions, I'm open to whatever.Complete

Clique Crash Out
12 kids. 12 untold stories. 12 unspoken traumas. Abandoned in the middle of the forest, will these kids uncover the darkest parts of themselves they swore to hide forever? Will they shove their secrets even farther down into themselves? Or will they find the courage to share, but not the chance? This story is about healing wounds. Metaphorically, and literally. With a masked attacker in the woods, some wounds will need to be healed. Cmon, go meet the first kid. Miles is a tough nut to crack, but you should try to get to know him. You should try and get to know ALL of them. UPDATES EVERY MON, WED, FRI, AND SUN TRIGGER WARNINGS With any good book about trauma, comes a list of trigger warnings. This book touches on physical, mental, and verbal abuse from friends, family, and guardians. As well as sexual assault and harassment (But don't worry, it's fade to black), has extreme depictions of self harm and suicidal thoughts, has scenes and descriptions of a public shooter, eating disorders, and lastly, racism/classism. The list may be long, but it IS the point of the book to touch on all of these topics. I hope you enjoy.
