Eva screamed as she stared at the dead bodies of her parents. In the background, she could faintly hear the voice of her dad’s best friend and his wife telling the audience outside her parent’s house all about the Summer’s daughter, who they found in the kitchen, covered in blood and wielding a knife. Eva branded those words in her mind as she was led away by a grim police officer. One day, she would get her revenge.
Evangeline “Eva” Summers was wrongly accused of murder. Sentenced to time in a psychiatric ward, Eva does all the right things and says all the right things and six years after her conviction, Eva is released on parole for good behavior.
But Eva isn’t the good girl she was. Four years around mentally ill people and the haunting memory of her parents have scarred her for life. But Eva has a purpose. To take revenge on the people who took her whole life away.
Returning to her home town, she certainly wasn’t expecting how changed everyone is. Soon she realizes that things aren’t as obvious as they had seemed to be. Who really killed her parents? Who framed her? And is she going to be able to ward off the darkness and despair that she lives in or is it too late?
Eva knows one thing. Whether justified or not, Eva will get her revenge even if it kills her.

Eva's Expedition
Sit up straight. Cross your ankles. Cover your freckles. Only have straight A's. Don't speak unless spoken to. No internet. No friends. No free time. No wishes, no dreams, no fun. Evangeline's world revolves around rules. Her parents have laid out the groundwork for every aspect of her life. She is homeschooled, has no real friends of her own, unless you count her tutor, and has zero connections outside her parents social circle. Eva is expected to go to lavish social events, smile prettily at rich boys, be Steven-Hawking-smart, look and act absolutely perfect, obey every command and never step a toe out of line. Workaholic, self absorbed, money loving parents don't make for a loving environment. She's not like them, she can't stand it. They may be rich and successful, sure. But no human can live like this. A golden cage is still a cage, and Eva wants to spread her wings. Confined to her parents rules and lifestyle, Eva can only bend so much before she breaks. She's 17 and angry. Eva wants nothing more than to write and travel. Her only escape is her 18th birthday. She'd be a legal adult. She'd have freedom, happiness. But it's too far away. They want to give her away to a man with a crooked smirk and roaming eyes. She can't do it anymore. So she runs away. She finds Logan, a boy of the projects. He's worn down and broken, but under the layers he's swathed himself in since the death of his mother, there is a lively, loving person. Genuine, attractive, and kind, he's Eva's first outside friend. He can take her away and they can both escape. Anyone can go just about anywhere with a stolen 15 grand in their backpack. Follow Eva and Logan on a 12 destination trip across the country and find out if their friendship blooms into something more. Maybe they'll both get the life they've always wanted and the love they deserve. ---- See Eva's world on Pinterest! Here's the link: https://pin.it/xj635nz3akmpvnAbgeschlossene Geschichte

Your voice (Under Editing)
Evangeline is a young girl with a painful past which has left too many scars on her shoulders. Trying not to give up is hard, especially when she doesn't find the will to talk anymore. When fate takes her to the White mansion, she encounters a man who's set up to discover what she is hiding. However, the more he unravels her secrets, the more is Elijah White not willing to let Evangeline give up her life. *Excerpt* Watching her carefully, she darted her eyes in the room, looking for a way out because the door was behind me and she had to pass by me to reach it. I could see how her breathing became even more frantic and I cursed again under my breath, remembering now that I was standing before her, half naked, watching intensely a woman who was on verge of crying and screaming. I didn't even want to know how it would look like if someone else would come now in the room. My ego didn't miss the moment to show up and remind me that my body or my face didn't have the effect I wanted on this woman. Not even close. And the next second, I started to feel embarrassed. Very embarrassed. I didn't even know that I could ever use that word when referring to myself. I had to do something before this woman would faint right before me. Think about something, you idiot. If you were able to come up with this stupid plan, you should get out of it too. "I want you to help me put on a new shirt." Way to go, idiot. I couldn't think of something else but it didn't seem it worked because she eyed me suspiciously and now, I felt even more stupid.
