"How can we not talk about family when family's all that we've got?"
Family huh?
Charlie is a regular teenager, or at least that's what she wants to be. Facing many problems on her life, from problems at school to troubles lurking in her family. Her school and social life is a mess, and her family are so caught up in their own problems to even support her. Having to live in an old rented flat with her criminal brother, her depressed mother, and her innocent younger brother, not knowing anything about her father, and having to be in control, life couldn't get any worse could it?
Little did she know, one truth could.
Who said knowing the truth would be easy?

Saving Isabella
Isabella's life has been anything but easy. At 14, she's already endured more than most. Her mother and her mother's boyfriend, Jack, were both controlling and abusive, leaving Isa to navigate the scars of their manipulation. Her mother always told her that her father abandoned them, and she never mentioned anything about brothers. Isa has lived believing she was truly alone. But everything changes when her mother and Jack are arrested, leaving her without a guardian. With nowhere else to turn, Isabella is sent across the country from Chicago to Los Angeles to live with nine brothers she never knew existed. Struggling with the trauma of her past and the lies she's been fed, Isa finds herself thrust into a new life with strangers she's supposed to call family. What she doesn't know is that these brothers are far from ordinary. They are not just successful men-they are the leaders of a powerful mafia empire, operating in the shadows of the city. Every brother has secrets of their one, as they have a hard time trusting anyone out of the family. Non the less the 9 brothers form a marvelous team. ⚠️⚠️ Warning ⚠️⚠️ - selfharm -drugs -blood -murder -suicide (attemps, ideation ecc...)

She survived the end. But it's only the beginning. Ever thought escaping Earth meant survival. Instead, it meant sacrifice. She lost her parents, her sister, and the two boys she loves-left behind to an uncertain fate. Now, on a distant planet she never asked to call home, Ever reunites with the brother she thought was dead. But this new world is not the refuge it promised to be. Her sister's haunting last words echo in her mind: "Your friends may be your foes, and your foes may be your only chance for survival."

As a genetically modified human, she carries a dangerous secret: she may be the only woman capable of creating life. To Environettix, the ruthless corporation pulling the strings, that makes her their most valuable-and most vulnerable-target. And she isn't the only one.

And Ever is beginning to realize a chilling truth: they don't belong here. And when something doesn't belong, it's only a matter of time before it's erased. *This is Book 2 in The Dissonance Series
The Lies We Share ✔
"She a coward sitting alone in her room, faceless and nameless among the many others like her. She was the shadow of a "real" girl. Laura felt the tears come, and it felt like forever since they've last truly fallen." We can't control the world but we can control how we react to it. Wise words, but nobody, especially not Laura Cliff, actually cares to follow that mantra. You could call it a character flaw but in her mind, it is unrelenting confidence in her ability to read people. Even if reading people is like talking through a tin can connected by a string that spans 1,000 miles. Relationships, she will learn, are kind of like that. If a drunk aunt and a sober world can't help her see through the lies, who exactly can? In The Lies We Share by Courtney Knight, one girl finds power and love in her daily life.
