Fragments of Grace

What happens when life breaks you beyond repair? For 15-year-old Charlie, the answer is simple-she's learned to survive in the shadows, lost in a world of abuse and neglect. Her parents, drowning in their own despair, left her to fend for herself, carving her pain into her skin and swallowing pills to numb the ache. When Vera D'Angelo, a cold-hearted mafia woman, arrives to collect a debt from Charlie's parents, she finds the girl on the floor, covered in scars, teetering on the edge of death. Seeing a broken soul in need of saving, Vera takes her in, offering her a new name and a chance at life. But as the two women-haunted by their own dark pasts-try to heal, they realize that redemption is never easy. Together, they must learn to rebuild what was shattered, one fragile step at a time.
