Evelyn was an expert at fading into the background. Her presence was quiet, observant, and deliberate, the kind of girl who always knew which corner of the room to occupy to stay out of trouble.
She wasn't shy, nor was she meek. She was simply careful.
Careful about who she trusted, careful about what she said, and, more than anything, careful about where she looked. But even someone like Evelyn had her breaking points.
She had learned, out of necessity, to find her people-Surprisingly, she had found solace among the boys, a group of misfits who, for their own reasons, didn't fit neatly into Hawkins High's social hierarchy either. They never seemed to care about who she liked or didn't like. Maybe it was because they didn't see her as a threat. Or maybe it was because they, too, carried invisible scars of their own. Either way, they had accepted her in a way no one else had.
But after distancing from them all, for reasons she wishes she didn't have to explain, could she make one other friend?
Perhaps the new girl at school? Her brother insists she should. But she isn't so sure.

Book three of Country Core Series.
From birth, Trinity saw the world differently than her peers. Not that she knew much of her peers in her childhood as she was home-schooled. However, that's all in the past. She has her own business, works hard and all-in-all, she's happy. For the most part, that is. As long as she still has her seclusion for which she has worked hard and values above all else, then she will be fine. If people would just stay away...
Leah has been blind her entire life but never let it hold her back as she embraced it with open arms. She hasn't ever known any differently and life is great. Or at least, it could be with these new changes. Moving to a new town, Leah is excited to begin a new life, but her family isn't exactly shy about their protectiveness of her. If only she could be somewhere, anywhere where people would treat her just as they would anyone else.
As their paths cross, Leah and Trinity's lives are forever changed, some changes for the better and others still up for debate. People can sometimes surprise us in the most exhilarating of ways, however, and they are just about to find out exactly why.
