Out of My Limit

"We are all broken, by life, by love, by trust. it is part of life, part of being mortal.

It is stupid averting the inevitable, so if i must be broken, i want to be broken by you"

Khloe Hemmings was just 4 when her parents ditched her at Lakemount Care Centre for Unwanted Children in Canberra, Australia. She had barely lived a life before that - a bright child, yet shut away at home, away from school or any contact with friends. While her abusive parents argued, she would cry and hide, and the bruises on her arms and face were each memories she hated to recall. A bittersweet life, dragged through the mud of reality.
Luckily for Khloe, she didn't go at it alone. Big brother Luke was always at her side.

Even if he was just 5 when they were put into care, Luke always watched out for his sister. They had each others' back, even when no one else did.

13 years later, they are legally allowed to leave the care home in search of a new life, a fresh start. Together.

Khloe's naivity and shyness gets her sucked into a dangerously unstable love crisis with Lukes' new best friend, Ashton Fletcher Irwin. He is an older, flirtatious, arrogant boy that has captured her heart, and her mind has seemed to loose control over itself, over him.

Under the blazing heat of the Australian sun, how long will it take before Khloe breaks under the pressure, and before she finally realises, that from the very start, she was way out of her depth.
