Escape was the one thing Adrienne King had always dreamt of. It didn't happen exactly the way she planned it, but after over two decades she believed her life could finally begin and she could close the book on the past. If only she'd realized that there is no closing the book, not while the unknown is always waiting around the corner.

It seemed like that part of her life was finally over--the lying and stealing and mind games. Certainly Adrienne never expected she would have to fear for her life again, but when a stranger shows up demanding two million dollars in six months as a repayment for the crimes of her father and brother, she quickly realizes that their influence on her life isn't over yet. For five years she wondered what her brother was up to and now she's about to find out.

Emilia Gillen longs to feel a sense of permanence after a lifetime of moving from one foster home to the next. She prefers to keep her head down and blend in, but when the brooding eyes of her new, mysterious foster brother keep looking her way, she doesn't mind the attention. But Cal Jones isn't the only one who notices her... The leering eyes of their perverse foster father make Emilia's skin crawl. To ensure her safety, Cal convinces her that they need to make a run for it. But soon the pair finds themselves out of options, causing them to accept help from a nefarious group in exchange for Cal's cooperation. While Cal falls deeper into the dangerous lifestyle of crime and the alluring world of drugs, Emilia realizes that the one she has deemed as her hero may be the one who needs saving. Will the love she found be enough to reach through the prison of self-loathing that Cal has caged himself in, or will it be what ruins her? ---------- ***TRIGGER WARNINGS: 18+ This book contains substance abuse, offensive language, violence, sexually explicit content, as well as some physical, verbal, and (not described) sexual abuse.

****THIS IS A SEQUEL. To be able to follow this story, please read "Unravelling" first**** Lily has started into the new year with a mixture of confusion, curiosity, anticipation - and dread. Ever since her oldest brothers revealed some of the truth about their family's past, the 12-year-old soon-to-be-teenager is struggling to come to terms with all the new and partially heart-breaking information. For the first few months of the year, Lily has tried to stay true to her word and not dig any further into their past, at least not until Alex, her guardian, is willing to share more details with the younger kids. However, Lily's patience is slowly running out. So many things are occupying her mind. She is convinced that there is still a lot more to discover about her family, and she is not willing to wait much longer. What is their father's story and can she locate him? How did her sister die? When will she see Finn again? Why is Sean really moving back home? And what is the reason behind her brothers' weirdly secretive behavior? With the help from her friends and some of her siblings, Lily continues her journey of gradually unravelling her family's secrets. Will she be successful? Will the implications of her discoveries slowly dissolve her family or is she able to save these fragile relationships before it is too late? Join Lily once again as she juggles school, friends, family (meetings), the general challenges of growing-up, creepy stalkers, some tragedies and maybe even her first encounter with something akin to a crush in these rather eventful months of her life.
