Poppy is trying to restart her life, starting a new job and trying to be good mum for her daughter Lauren. But it's not easy. Her past haunts her and threatens to drag her back into its clutches. But maybe, just maybe, there's a light at the end of the tunnel. Praise for Twenty: "That was lovely. Sad that things didn't work out with Ramona, but... Poppy really needed Mikayla, I think. (And vice versa.) I could hear Poppy's voice in my head, and found myself grinning when Poppy spoke in her 'posh voice' to Mrs. Fanshawe. Cheering when Mikayla became a rain-soaked Nemesis with her sword of wood. Getting a little misty when... well, there were so many moments. Thanks for sharing this." author Jalibar62 "Thank you so much for this, I really fell for these two - Poppy broke my heart again and again, but this bit: "Made me realise that when Mikayla hears my voice she isn't thinking of somebody stupid, but of somebody she cares for."

Family Comes First
Being alone? Check. Being afraid? Check. Being abused? Check times 3. Honestly, my life wasn't this bad before, not until I ended in foster care... SIKE! My life was always bad. From the moment I was born, I lived with an abusive father who blamed me for my mother's death, and even I couldn't disagree with him. Here are a few questions I am constantly asked: 'Do I do well in school?' No, are you kidding me? The only subject I'm good at is Visual Arts. 'Do I have a kind and caring family?' No, I don't think I do. 'Do I have anyone who cares about me?' No, I'm a loner and socially awkward. 'Do I have privileges?' No, if you haven't understood the message yet, I live in an abusive household. Now, you might ask if there are any questions the answer is yes. I'll give you some. 'Do I want to die?' Yes, I sometimes do. 'Do I feel alone in this world?' Yes, always. 'Do I get a beating every day?' Yes. *** This is Amara Williams, a 13 year-old with average grades and no friends. What happens when her only guardian, her dad, is dead? What happens when she finds out that she has five older brothers who are not only strict and demanding, but also protective assholes? More importantly, what happens when she finds out that she was taught lies from the moment she was born? Follow Amara as she digs deeper into her family history, uncovering the secrets and discovering the lies. ___ ⚠️ Trigger Warning ⚠️ There will be mentions of abuse, r@pe, self harm, death, and many other dark themes.
