Aleisha is escaping her old life in order to find a home and safety in a new town, away from everything she's ever known, under the roof of a couple she has only encountered once before. She knew that creating a new identity for herself would be hard as she sought out a better life for herself, but it seems even harder than she originally expected. Especially when memories of her past continue to haunt her every moment. Not to mention an increasingly curious boy in this odd town, who seems more determined to get her to talk than anyone else she's ever met. Will she be able to cope with the secrets she uncovers about this town and about herself? Or will she fall prey to the haunting memories of what her life once was?

Knife's Edge by TinyZebraThing

With a drug lord for a father and an addict for a mother, Jade Taylor has been dealt a pretty shabby hand in life. Her childhood was spent in a constant state of fear, her only solace being her two half-sisters, Charlotte and Bailey, who were forced to live the nightmare alongside her. Her father finally got caught when she was seven and for a fleeting, white-hot second, it seemed that things were going to be okay. She should've known better. She should've known that her mother would jump ship, choose the drugs and not the daughter. Suddenly left abandoned, navigating the murky waters of life in care, it took a little while longer for Jade to find her place in the world. Now, finally, she has. At the age of eighteen, Jade is counting down the days before her exams are over, excited to spend the summer with her two best friends and boyfriend. Unfortunately, things don't always go according to plan... not in a town like Greencliff. Upon meeting the Coleman's - a family that fits so perfectly into the 'gang' culture she so desperately wants to avoid - Jade finds herself teetering on the edge of a blade, carefully balanced between the life she wants and the life she wants to escape. The question is... which way will she fall? (This description is a work in progress and may be subject to change!)
