As a shy child, Lawrence lives for his extensive and well-cared for toy collection. But then these toys begin to disappear. When he finds out why, it leads to the end of his joy and sense of security, and he retreats even further into himself.

Bonnie is surprised one day after school by the appearance in her home of an elderly (and previously unknown to her) relative, her Great-grandmother Judith. It turns out that Judith is a compulsive shoplifter, and soon the family apartment is filled to the ceiling with trinkets and baubles. It's a strange life, but Bonnie loves it. Then it all ends in one terrible week, and Bonnie loses everything.

Somehow Lawrence and Bonnie find each other, and some small bit of happiness, while struggling to overcome their traumatic pasts.

Co-leaders Rose and Hazel attract her into this group - with similar styles. Are they trustworthy? Lillian struggles with fitting into college with a traumatic past, and severe guilt.

Fucking God of Death by Godess-of-anything

If you are special, it's only natural that you'll get the gods' attention at some point of your life. That was what happened to Kim Rok Soo. At some point, Kim Rok Soo became a variable, someone whose fate could not be predicted by the gods. As a being that was in great need of such a variable, the God of Death decided to bring him into the world he originated from before he ascended and became a god in order to save it from the many dangers trying to destroy it. But it went wrong, hell went it wrong! Oh boy, the God of Death's plans went to shit so fast! An unexpected problem arose, causing a mistake in the soul transferring process between Kim Rok Soo and Cale Henituse. While the latter arrived safely in the thirty-six year old body, Kim Rok Soo's soul was transferred into the body of an eight year old Cale Henituse. And that was where all of the trouble started. Reliving the childhood trauma of a minor villain should be fun, especially if you've had your own trauma from your own shitty childhood, right? Yeah, that's right. And then you have to fight in a war, such a truly exciting combination, isn't it? This is solely a fanfiction; neither the characters nor the original story belong to me ;) This book may have some sensitive topics, so read with care. It will get gay in the process, so if you dont like that, dont read (though it will take quite some time)

𝐒𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐭𝐡 𝐛𝐞𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐝 𝐢𝐭 𝐚𝐥𝐥. 𝐒𝐡𝐞 𝐠𝐨𝐭 𝐢𝐭. ~ For five years, Evelyn turned up missing. Locked at the bottom of an endless void of water in a metal safe. Trapped in a coma of her own. Though she returns, nothing in her life is the same. Her family has vanished without a trace. The home she has spent more torturous yet joyful moments in, the closest thing to home, destroyed and left in rubble. Her best friends, her brother, her own daughter, missing without so much as a trail. No one left to help her, console her, tell her everything will be okay. Within the span of five months, Evelyn has managed to rise back to her feet, but she's dropped her old life. Temporarily. Changing her hair style, and name, she's confided in people eligible to help her. But per usual, she's ultimately bound to making enemies. Creating a new enemy was not on her agenda, especially not one that she is agreeing to marry. After getting into a situation she can't seem to get herself out of, she is forced to stay in the same house as someone she hates as much as he hates her. But as time drags on, the line between love and hate seems to blur. Forcing herself to focus on her main objective, she attempts to limit as much time with him as possible. But living in the same house, despite its rather large build, she's bound to run into him by chance. Evelyn will do anything to save her family, as they had done many occasions before-for her. Even if it means destroying her own happiness in the process. {MATURE LANGUAGE} TW -Violence -Rape/sexual assault -Kidnapping -Drugs -Gore/torture -Suicide thoughts/attempt

Porcelain Skin (NOW ON AMAZON KU) by kario12

"When I tell you that he hates me, you'll probably assume it's because he's a jerk...but you'd be wrong. He's not a jerk. I am." --- Several years ago tragedy struck Emma's home, leaving her broken... like a cup with cracks spiraling and slithering around the edges. Slowly, bitterness crept in like tar, hardening between each fracture to resemble a deceitful wholeness. She became a monster, and targeted her venom on the sweetest person she could find: Trinity Nixon. Too bad the boy Emma longed for was Trinity's brother. Now, as Emma fights to win the heart of the boy who despises her, she's forced to hide her demons. She paints her fragile cup in pinks, yellows, and oranges - all the colors of the sun. She paints on a smile, and an unusual sense of humor, so that the world will view her as bright and cheerful, when in reality she's breaking. But she's completely unprepared for the acidic truth that melts away the tar, demolishing her shell, and awakening the Emma White buried deep inside. --- Book 1 in The Dismantled Pride series *Story was previously titled "Faking It"

About Harry by ScribblingAloud

Do we really want to believe that our dear Harry after: serious lack of love during infancy, death threats as if no tomorrow, traumatizing losses left right and center, can actually get a carefree and happy life?! PTSD just like rain if you ask me. This is a trilogy, that grows in intensity (and writing skills :D ) where we'll find out about his life and struggles where he has been left by J.K.R. in the last chapter. That Christmas, 19 years later. Disclaimer: Characters contained in this book have not been invented by me, they are covered by copyright. The aim of this book is solely of an entertaining nature. I do not sell it or make money out of it in any way.<br /> It starts light but contents tend to grow intense. Nothing excessive but still I would put a ban to younger than 15? 16? Be the judge of yourself but keep in mind that it contains: Sex. Nothing explicit nor vulgar but it's there as in all adults lives. Swearing. Idem as above. Violence. Unfortunately, time to time, idem as above. Deaths. Moreover it is not a "magic" kind of tale. It's about adults and family interactions.

Picking Up The Pieces by SophiaEBenz

Hey guys! This book has been officially published on Amazon. It's available as an ebook or a paperback. The version available on Amazon has been edited and I even changed some of the plot. I'd love it if you went to check it out and maybe even bought it. (https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0BF333KWH/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?ie=UTF8&qid=&sr=) Love, Sophia *** "I-" I try to say something, anything, but the words get stuck in my throat when Jonas suddenly grabs the collar of my shirt and pulls me awfully close to his face. "Shut it!" Chills shoot down my spine as if someone just dumped a bucket of ice water down the back of my shirt. What is he doing? I know he can get angry sometimes, but he wouldn't dare to lay a hand on me in public, would he? I wait and wait for him to do something, but he does nothing because we get interrupted by a loud voice that sounds through the quiet of the night. "Hey!" I dare to open my eyes a little to see where it's coming from. A tall blond guy, carrying grocery bags is standing a couple yards away. "Yes, I'm talking to you! Step away from the girl right now!" *** The story of two broken souls- Madeleine Evans, a college student in an abusive relationship, and Elias Sanders, a soldier suffering from PTSD- trying to pick up their own and each other's pieces. Warning: Mature content! (Violence, strong language, sexual assault, substance abuse...)
