Breaking Bailey (Now on Radish)

She steals, she lays in the streets at night, she's tired, and hungry, and alone. Bailey Lillian Nova was abandoned by her parents who never wanted her in the first place. She's the youngest of five, the most rebellious, and the one her parent's couldn't handle. Her biggest secret got her kicked out of her home and now she travels the country, trying to find a place to call home.

Seth Matthews finds a girl curled behind a dumpster one day while working at his family's pizzeria. She was cold, tired and barely lucid. He scoops the girl up and brings her inside, where his entire family nurses her back to health.

Bailey feels comfortable and safe for once in her eighteen years of life. Seth slowly, but surely, falls deeply in love with the girl he found, and so did the rest of his large, Italian family. Just as life got good, everything crashed down when Bailey saw her parents on the television, looking to find her again.

Just how long can Bailey stay before she has to run again?
