Adelina Martinez isn't your average teenage girl. She doesn't like to shop, despises dresses with a passion, and is NOT interested in boys as anything more than friends, yet. Instead she's a risk taker with an attitude who doesn't seem to fit in.
After a terrible accident, her mom decides she needs to start anew. A new town, a new home and a new job. A teenager doesn't fit into her plans and Adelina is forced to go live with her estranged grandmother, who is determined to shape her granddaughter into a proper young lady. Afraid of change, Adelina refuses to make friends and tries to push others away, but those that she does let in see much more than she ever intended.
Can she keep her past and her secrets to herself? Or will she have to open up and invite people in?
Can her deepest kept secret be the key to her saving grace?

Twin At First Sight |✓|
I felt the tears rise and I looked down for a minute, gathering all of my resolve. I looked up again and stared him right in the eye. "You know what? I trusted you!" I jabbed my finger in his chest and he recoiled. "I trusted you and you broke my trust. I trusted you to keep the secret. I trusted you enough to tell you everything. I trusted you to keep my trust. I trusted you." I told him and he flinched as my voice broke in the end. I looked away from him and at everyone else in the room. "And you wonder why I never trust. You know what? I can't do this. I'm done." I scoffed and shoved past Aiden but paused at the door, not looking back. "Oh, and if you are still curious? Go ahead and hack into the file. Don't say that I didn't warn you." ************************************************************** Alexis and Aiden are siblings with Aiden being 11 months older than her. With a neglectful mother and an abusing step dad, these two face the world on their own with no one to help them out. When they get a chance at a new life, they jump at it. What happens when Alexis bumps into a boy in the new school she is set to attend? Especially when the boy she bumps into looks exactly like her. [Like I mention in every book, my descriptions are horrible so please read the book before judging anything.]Complete

Shattered
⚠️THIS STORY IS OLD. IT ISN'T VERY GOOD. THE OTHER BOOK IS BETTER⚠️ Adeline was a good kid. She worked hard, took care of herself, and didn't let anybody push her around. At least that's what the kids at school thought. But, like most people, she had secrets. Things nobody knew about her. Nobody knew her mother and stepfather hated her. Nobody knew she lived alone with her best friend. Nobody knew that, outside of school, she was a totally different person. Nobody knew what she had been through, and all the things that left her shattered. This is how she lived her life. This is the only life she had ever known. But what would happen if all of that changed? Could one school lecture, a mishap at the courthouse, and a DNA test change her life forever? For the better or for the worst, Adeline's life is about to change. And for once in her life, she might not have to keep so many secrets. ********************************* Started: 6/18/2022 Finished: 7/29/2022 © 2022 Taylor Sassone Cover by my awesome sister @owlhootsburger13Complete
