Yours Truly, Ramona
Life doesn't abide by the rules of a child. Sixteen-year-old Ramona knows this. She's seen it throughout her entire life, from the way she was treated by her birth parents to the way she was thrown around the foster system with nothing but her little brother, Mason, to hold onto. Every bruised cheek and broken bone has slowly shattered Ramona's trust in the system and any foster parent she's ever met. In the end, it's only Mason she can trust. Her life is dedicated to making his better, and focused solely on sheltering him from the pain of feeling as lonely as she is. That is, until Ramona gets news one day that may just uproot everything she's ever believed about her and Mason's situation. Everything is about change for Mason, all because of a man named Owen Parker. He wants to take the only thing that Ramona has ever truly loved. He wants to adopt her brother, and there is nothing she can do to stop him. Though after years of running and years of pain, Ramona knows just how badly Mason needs a home.

Always Okay | (Adopted By Elizabeth Olsen)
"All I needed was you....but you left me" ~Alexis Chase Olsen "Giving you up was the hardest thing that I ever had to do but it wasn't my decision" ~ Elizabeth Olsen ------ I'm not great at writing these so instead here's an excerpt from the first chapter. (There's a full prologue in Chapter two - it's a bit complex!) Walking into the dimly lit hospital room, her eyes were instantly drawn to the small figure with knotted brunette hair that sat on the bed. Her breathing seemed to hitch as she slowly walked around the bed to face the still teenager. Those gorgeous brown eyes that haunted her in her sleep met her teary hazels as she tried to reason away all of the worries that clouded her mind. It couldn't be...or could it. "Alexis" the woman finally spoke with her voice full of emotion. *Mature rating b/c of mature themes such as sexual assault, physical abuse, eating disorders, and violent panic attacks* #1 in Adoption 3/24/22 #1 in Godmother 6/19/22Complete
