Runaway (Hero, book 1)

All her life, Ariana Gold has been pushed to one family after another, never catching a break. Through it all, however, she had a rock. Her name was Clara Davis, Aria’s social worker. Clara was more than her rock, Clara was her best friend; a mother figure. She was everything Aria had ever wanted but like everything else in her life, it went sour. Everything she ever knew was taken away the moment Clara left.
Aria is nineteen now, her life somewhat better. She has her own flat, a puppy and a job… She has everything under control. Until her new neighbour moves in across from her, a guy from a past she wants to forget. With him just across the hall, things get hard and secrets come out. Aria’s past comes forth into the light and things get dark.
Not being able to cope with the little things creeping up on her, Aria runs back to the last family that she lived with. There, she feels normal. Like she’s a part of something. A family. But that could never be true. That’s why she tries to keep people at arm’s length. She’s been hurt too many times.
Will Aria ever be open enough to let people in or will the keep hurting her?
Will she find a family that loves her for her or will she keep getting the pretenders?
