Falling Apart
*TRIGGER WARNING: DEALS WITH DEPRESSION, SELF HARM AND SUICIDE* Amber is sixteen years old and to sugarcoat it... She hasn't had the best upbringing. She would love a different life, one where she can see her mother again and not be stuck with her abusive father. A life where she doesn't get taunted and hit and torn apart by everyone who she has ever seen. But she would never swap, she doesn't want anyone to endure the pain she's gone through. So instead, she tries to get rid of it... Again. But much to her disbelief, she is saved by the people she would least expect. She learns secrets about them that no one else knows. She feels included. Cared for. And dare I say it... She felt loved. For once in her life, she felt truly happy to be alive. But just when Amber felt safe, her life was flipped upside down and her past came back to haunt her just when she least expected it...

In a world where choices define destinies, Maya Turner finds herself at a crossroads that could change everything. Living in the small town of Willow Creek, she has always been the quiet observer, the girl who blends into the background while others carve their paths. But when a mysterious letter arrives, inviting her to leave her mundane life behind for an adventure in a city that promises freedom and self-discovery, Maya is faced with a decision that sends her spiraling into introspection. As she grapples with her fears and desires, Maya embarks on a journey that takes her beyond the familiar streets of Willow Creek.
