Jenny Herrington's home isn't what she wished for. It never really has been. Not even before her mom walked out.

Her dad is a deadbeat drunk that beats her now that her mom is out of the picture. He relies on Jenny to bring home money at the expense of dropping out of school. Little does he know that she's now a senior and is graduating the week of her 18th birthday. 

There's one thing Jenny wants out of her life now: an escape. She wants to move out, leave her dad and her job at Milton Foods behind, and start over again somewhere in the Rockies. Preferably somewhere that's not a grocery store. There's just one problem, though: a way to get there. She can't drive and it's not like she has a car, anyway. As she's getting ready to go, her boss gets injured, and a whole new headache is added to the equation: Brayden Milton. 

He soon becomes the bane of Jenny's existence. The only way she knows to make it through this new storm that his presence brings is thinking about a fast car to anywhere other than Rapid Falls.All Rights Reserved

The Escape by anj6232

Abigail "Abby" Lee Emerson's life hasn't unfolded as she had hoped. Her childhood was filled with joy in a home where her parents were deeply in love. However, everything changed dramatically when her father, Lee, discovered that Bella, Abby's younger sister, was not his biological child. The situation worsened when he caught his wife cheating with another man. Nina, the mother of the two girls, now finds herself divorced and on drugs, jumping from man to man, and still living under the same roof as her ex-husband and children, although she's never around. She was sleeping around with other men without her husband knowing for years. Lee, Abigail's father, has become indifferent to his ex-wife Nina's actions. To him, she now holds no significance, which leads to his nightly bouts of excessive drinking. In his eyes, Nina has destroyed his life, and he has become apathetic towards everyone, including his daughter. His anger is often directed at Bella and Abby, especially when she tries to shield her younger sister. Abigail, known as Abby, works daily to provide for her family. Her family is Bella. Abby wants nothing to do with her mother when she's around or her father because of his actions. Abby works days and nights to make enough money for bills and food. Sometimes, it's not enough, but it doesn't matter to her as long as Bella is fed. On the day her world crumbles, Abby encounters Jace, a daunting figure who instills fear in her yet inexplicably captures her heart as he saves her from the turmoil of her home.

Blurred by speakandbeHeard

(TH#4)"His mind is a chaotic mess, built of the kind of stuff you read about in a Stephen King novel. He couldn't control his anger any more than I could control my stomach from rumbling when I was hungry. He thought cursing like a sailor at others was morally acceptable, and most of all didn't seem to give a rat’s ass about himself. Any normal person would have stayed far, far away. But me? Well, I wasn't normal.” When Lilia Matthews' argumentative and dysfunctional family becomes too much to bear, she moves in with her grandfather for a summer in Heart, North Carolina. What she doesn't expect? Alec Grey. He's creepy, and dark, and frankly everything Lilia doesn't need to be getting involved with. But he has a few problems of his own. Besides the fact that he's certifiably crazy, he can't remember any of the events that led to him showing up on her grandfather's doorstep. And Lilia's apparent mission? To help him regain those memories. When they clash it's like fire and ice, but as Alec and Lilia find out, it's the craziest moments of all when that fine line between love and hate seems to blur. When you find out maybe going against the world all on your own isn't all it's cracked up to be. And that sometimes, it takes delving into the insanity of another to find the sanity within yourself.
