The Unwanted Twin (New Version)

Fifteen-year-old Ainsley Myers has never been the daughter worth loving. At least, that's what her mother made sure she believed. While her twin sister, Allison, was cherished and protected, Ainsley became the outlet for their mother's rage and their stepfather's abuse. Pain taught her who she was. Survival taught her who she had to be.

Then, in a single morning, everything changes.

After their foster dad is arrested, Ainsley and Allison are taken to the police station and handed a revelation they never saw coming: they weren't unwanted by their family, they were stolen. They have a father who never stopped searching. Brothers who grew up celebrating their birthdays without them. A home full of people who have been waiting for years to see them again.

For everyone else, this is a miracle.

For Ainsley, it's a threat. Because love is unfamiliar. Safety feels like a trap. And belonging to a family she doesn't trust might break her in ways abuse never could.

As she steps into a world built on tenderness and loyalty, Ainsley must confront the one question she has spent thirteen years avoiding:

How do you let yourself be loved when you were raised to believe you don't deserve it?
