This is the story of a girl who burned.
**********************************************************************************

Gracie was caught in the fire and burned all across her arms and legs, she unknowingly saved herself by lying down on the floor in the fire. Now her best friend ran off with the new girl and she's an outcast even in her own house. Almost exactly three months later she hardly talks and drowns the world out in music, she's deathly afraid of fire and thinks there is no coming back from the accident that brought her fragile world crashing down.

Set Fire To The Rain
She might've been the muse to a Carrie Underwood song. A Miranda Lambert CD with all the angst and twice the gasoline. It wasn't just trauma that Cassie Mckenna was running away from. It was her she was most scared of. Same broken-hearted girl who wanted nothing but to strike a match and watch it all burn to the ground. At war with her demons, Cassie leaves behind her tragic small town in Oklahoma for New York City to follow her dream as a photographer. But one vulnerable moment in the backseat with a New York City firefighter ignites her world like a backdraft. Taking another chance at love, Cassie plays the part of keeping up appearances as a firefighter's wife. Noe is her perfect match. After all, she loves fire...She really, really loves fire. Can a recovering arsonist keep the fires of her marriage simmering into happily ever after, or will her barely contained addiction once again destroy everything she loves? *** They say complements make the best kind of relationship. He likes rock. I like country. He drowns everything in Tapitio. I prefer Tabasco sauce. He's sweet and laid back, and I'm the one who holds a grudge. He puts out the fires, and I start them. Is that a deal breaker?

sad, beautiful, tragic // j.r.b
~some things you just can't speak about.~ // hazel eloise finley's old english and frankly quite pretentious name was never released to public whenever she survived the shooting at her high school. not even after the paramedics took her away with a severe bullet wound to the calf or even whenever she drug and hopped herself outside for medical attention afterwards either. only known as the jane doe that survived a school shooting, and the years of physical therapy, permanent nerve damage and chronic pain proved to be the least of her worries. it took years of therapy, hospitalizations, and prescriptions for her to even feel ready to start college after high school. and whenever she did, much like her name, she was determined to bury it. despite the trauma she went on to become one of the most gifted music majors enrolled at the prestigious university in Nashville, TN, an honors student, a residential advisor, and slowly making her way to the student council someday. Though just coming into her sophomore year, a heavily tattooed literature major transfers into the room across from hers that throws everything off track. Julien Rose Baker infuriated her at first, not only because her friends and roommates were loud and obnoxious and stayed up all hours of the night playing loud music and probably doing anything but studying, but because she was better than her, in every sense of the word. sight reading music without missing a beat or a note, shredding her guitar in nearly every practice room, leaving most professors in awe of her vocal range, and not to mention the writings of hers read during some of the english classes the two shared. it was jealousy at its finest. though whenever an unexpected turn of events leaves hazel almost having no choice but to be vulnerable, something else besides avoiding her dorm neighbor might turn into something else. ~ TW for gun violence, ptsd, anxiety, depression, etc...Complete
