She thought she knew who she was.
She thought the life she lived was real.
But everything changed the day a stranger showed up at her doorstep-
claiming to be her brother.
Fourteen-year-old Nova's life in Willow Creek may have been small, but it was safe. Ordinary. Hers.
Now, Nova is being flown across the country to Ravenshore , to live with a family she never knew existed- brothers in uniform, a strict but patient father and the tightly-run world of the Tri Forces Academy.
Thrown into a life of military structure, unfamiliar faces, and rules she never asked for, Nova must navigate grief, trust and the terrifying possibility that home might not be a place-but a choice.
She doesn't want this life.
She doesn't trust these people.
And she definitely doesn't belong here... or does she ?

Life doesn't abide by the rules of a child. Sixteen-year-old Ramona knows this. She's seen it throughout her entire life, from the way she was treated by her birth parents to the way she was thrown around the foster system with nothing but her little brother, Mason, to hold onto. Every bruised cheek and broken bone has slowly shattered Ramona's trust in the system and any foster parent she's ever met. In the end, it's only Mason she can trust.

After a mission gone devastatingly wrong and a rampage that made even the Guardians fear her, her memories were erased.

And there are others: students, soldiers, ghosts, and enemies who seem to know more about her than she does herself. As Nova begins to unlock terrifying truths about her past, her powers return-and so do the questions: Who was she before they erased her? Why did her team really die?

Hurricane Love
☑️Completed☑️ 🥇1st Place in Teen Fiction | The Aspirants Awards🥇 "Ryker sighed and swiped his face frustratedly with the palm of his hand. 'Look, I'm not interested in having this conversation with, you, Amelia,' he said, looking everywhere but at me. 'It's time for you to leave because I have a train to catch.' 'You know what, Ryker?' I said, my voice weak and soft as I tried to stop it from shaking. 'I think I've figured out the real reason they call you The Hurricane; they come into people's lives unannounced and uninvited and destroy every single thing in their path before they decide to leave again, without a clue or care for the devastation they leave behind.' Ignoring the haunted expression on his face as he took in my words, I spun on my heel and walked out the door, hoping to never see the piece of shit ever again." Life hasn't been easy for 16-year old Amelia Woods. Most of her life she spent being passed around the foster care system until finally being adopted by her parents and moving to the quirky little town of Richmond where she met her dream boyfriend Mason Miller. Life couldn't be better for Amelia - then arrives Ryker Jordan; Mason's childhood best friend who disappeared from town years ago and decides to make his return. He is obnoxious and arrogant and the very definition of a rebel; someone that Amelia finds herself hating with a passion and she has no idea how he gets under her skin so easily.

What she does not realise, is just how life-changing her curiosity is going to become and that once she lets herself go there, there's no coming back.Complete
