Chasing Normal

Sora never meant for life to spiral this way. At just 18, she became a mother to Taipan, the only light left in her dark world after the tragedy that tore her family apart. Her sister's murder shattered her, and in a moment of rage and desperation, she made a decision she could never take back: she blew up the library to take out her sister's killer.

Falcon, her boyfriend at the time, promised to stand by her-but the promise crumbled the moment the flames settled. Left alone and on the run, Sora disappeared into the shadows to protect her son.

Five years later, they've carved out a fragile existence. Taipan, now a bright and curious Six-year-old, gives Sora hope she never thought she'd have again. When Willow, a kind and mysterious woman, enters her life, Sora begins to believe in the possibility of love and happiness.

Three months into their relationship, life seems to be falling into place. Taipan is starting school, and for the first time in years, Sora feels normal. But Willow has secrets, too-secrets that threaten to tear their fragile world apart. As Sora gets closer to the truth about Willow's past, she must decide if she can trust the woman who's captured her heart-or if the darkness surrounding Willow will be the thing that finally destroys everything Sora has worked to protect.
