Trust by KristalKlearSky

What would you do if you run into someone you never wanted to forget but had no reason to ever see again? Anya has spent years trying to find the reasons why she made choices in her past that only led her to heartbreak. If she had realized sooner what was going on when she was not looking, she might have done things differently. However, she cannot change the past. All she can do is focus on moving forward, that is until her past comes walking back into her life with a smile that takes her back to when she was seventeen. She thought she was in love, and it was years before she realized she was not. It has been years since she has seen him, and now that she is free, she might get her chance at the happiness she was deprived of. Can Anya forgive those who broke her trust? Can she let down her walls to let someone else in? What if he has been there all along and she did not want to believe it? What if this time he is not going to let her slip through his fingers again?

The last year of high school before Ellie gets to finally leave everything behind her and chase her dreams. Her evil stepmom, stupid school, fake friends and most of all her deceiving prince charming whom she might have never fallen out of love from.

But she might be in for a ride, when her past crashes onto her and the monsters that she had buried six feet deep within start to chase her again. A wilting relationship, a new found friendship, old addictions and false dedications might just finally crown her as a princess from an overused fairytale. And even if it breaks her heart, she might just push her prince too hard when he finally knocks on her door wearing his best apology for arriving just after the clock has struck midnight.
