Book 1 of The Foster Boys Series
"Scars can tell a story. A story of loss, pain, and survival. Some scars are hidden in shame and others are proudly displayed"
I hated my life. I wanted nothing more than to just disappear and fade into the background of high school until graduation. I made it 2 years, what's another 2, right? It wasn't going to be easy, but I would've managed. Until Delilah Sanders waltzed into my art room.
All legs and natural beauty. Full of life and popularity.
In just one day she reminds me of why life was a gift that should be lived to the fullest.
Maybe she thought she could save me. Maybe this was all an act. Or maybe she actually cared about me.
Either way, this wasn't going to have a happy ending. My life wasn't meant for that.

WAKE (Wattpad edition)
The powerful conclusion to the SCARS trilogy. Jon finally feels like he has a place where he can get a break from the weight of having to be Pastor Pete's good son. But the opioid pills he's using to manage his pain are changing his behavior in ways he won't be able to hide for much longer. It isn't even his biggest secret: no one knows the real Jon White, and he's terrified if the full truth of himself comes out it will cost both the love of his earthly dad and his heavenly Father. Cary has one last hurdle to leave years of childhood abuse behind him: the trial at which he has to testify against his abuser. But his decision to speak up has splintered the remains of his family and his former best friend seems bent on self-destructing. Cary's going to need everything he's learned along the way to snatch Jon off the ledge. It's never been more obvious the journey from walking wounded to wholeness isn't meant to be travelled alone.

Porcelain Skin (NOW ON AMAZON KU)
"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"Compleet
