Eighteen-year-old Reyna knows struggle like most teens never will. Living in the crumbling heart of a poverty-stricken neighborhood, she's spent her life shielding her younger siblings from the chaos of their home. Their mother, lost in a haze of apathy and addiction, has left Reyna to juggle school, work, and the aching burden of being the only adult in their lives. Every day, Reyna dreams of escaping to college, where she hopes to build a better future for her family-but the odds seem impossibly stacked against her.

When Noah, her childhood best friend, reunites with her with dreams of his own, Reyna begins to feel something she's never known: a chance for real happiness. But just as she starts to let her guard down, she begins to feel things for Ethan, a new friend with his own scars, who sees the fierce resilience in her and encourages her to chase her dreams without compromise.

As Reyna navigates the deepening connections with Noah and Ethan, her love life becomes a maze of passion, loyalty, and doubt. But when her mother's neglect spirals into a crisis that threatens to tear her siblings apart, Mia faces an impossible choice: stay and sacrifice her dreams to protect her family or risk everything to chase a future that might not be hers to claim.

Torn between love, responsibility, and her own ambitions, Reyna must decide whether she can rise above her shattered world-or if the weight of it all will hold her down forever.

Don't Save Her is a raw, emotional story of resilience, sacrifice, and the unyielding fight to soar, even when the world seems determined to clip your wings.

#1 Teen Fiction | #1 Young Adult | #1 Romance "We all need someone to drive us mad." - The Wombats. He stared arrogantly down at me, a smirk plastered across his face. I sneered up at him with distaste, wanting to wrap my fingers around his neck and strangle that smirk off of him. He brushed my golden hair from my face, his long, slender fingers sparking electricity in my skin, making my knees wobble together. "Will you ever, forgive me?" he whispered huskily, his eyes intently staring into mine. His face was only mere inches from me. I just needed to reach out a little further to kiss him... "Yeah. Over my dead body." I snapped, before throwing my arms out forcefully, shoving my hands into his chest, pushing him from me. -*-*-*- He, is Carter Williams. I, am Lacey Adams. We were once, inseparable. The 'Golden Couple'. The unbreakable best friends, that everybody envied. Nothing could get between us. A part from being tighter than white on rice, we updated our status from friends to being in a relationship, frequently. We were neighbours, which meant our families were all close and even co-owned houses around our town. This, all is, until the day of my sixteenth birthday. Everything changed. The loving relationship we shared, was severed and torn apart. I couldn't hardly stand to look at him any more, without spitting fire that is. Every day is torture being around him. He was in all my classes at school and the window in my room was even directly aligned with his. So, what happens? My mother's mum gets sick, so dad and her fly out. Just them. Leaving me to stay with Carter and his parents, who are never home. We would be alone. In one house. Under the same roof. If I was insane before, I have no idea what I am now. © 2016 by LaurenJ22.

Resilience

7 parts Ongoing

I never planned on telling my story. Truth is, I've spent most of my life holding it in, swallowing the pain, laughing off the shade, putting on a mask when deep down I was fighting battles no one could see. But the older I got, the more I realized silence can eat you alive. And if I don't tell it raw and unfiltered, then who will? This book isn't polished for perfection. It's not sugarcoated, it's not dressed up to make anyone comfortable. It's me, The struggles, the lessons, the laughter, the embarrassing moments, the heartbreaks, the love, the shady comebacks, the nights I thought I wouldn't make it, and the mornings I woke up ready to fight again. I named this book Resilience because that's exactly what my life has been about. No matter how many times I was knocked down by people I loved, by family pressure, by toxic love, by my own mistakes, I got back up. Bruised, maybe. Bitter, sometimes. But never broken. So if you're holding this book, know this is, you're not reading some perfect fairytale. You're stepping into my world. One filled with chaos, comedy, culture, love, and pain that shaped me into the person I am today. And maybe, just maybe, you'll find pieces of yourself in these pages too. This is my story. Raw. Real. Resilient.
