16 year old Evalyn doesn't know what it's like to trust adults. At eight years old, her father left the family to build his business only to die in a tragic car crash. Her mother is a drug addict, worried about her next fix more than her daughter's next meal. Evalyn's only solace is in a few strangers she met over the Internet. But when Evalyn is thrown out of her house, with no family to go live with, one friend offers her a place - a twenty-seven year old man in California.

Hearts Don't Break Forever
Alana Riviere grew up fast, and not by choice. Born to teen parents who somehow made it work, she spent her early years in the buzz of New York City, surrounded by ambition, love, and a little bit of chaos. Her mom was a whirlwind of creativity; her dad, the steady rock. Life felt golden-until it didn't. At 14, she lost her older brother, the one who always had her back. Two years later, her younger brother-sweet, shy, and only nine-tried to take his own life after relentless bullying. Then, just when Alana thought things couldn't get worse, her mom cheated, the family split apart, and everything she knew fell apart. Fast forward to 21, Alana's living in LA, modeling for top brands, sipping overpriced matcha, and decorating her apartment with vintage posters and candles she'll never light. She's finally out of a toxic relationship that nearly broke her, and she's found a friend group that feels like the family she lost. Her mom is a stranger now, remarried with two stepdaughters back in New York. But her dad? He's still her favorite person, living in Cape Cod with his kind, considerate fiancée and her now 16-year-old brother, who's doing a lot better. Alana's got her independence, her career, and a hard-earned sense of peace. But when old wounds start to reopen and her friendships are tested, she begins to wonder: is she really as healed as she thinks? Can this new life actually stick? And somewhere in all of this-between heartbreak and healing-is there still a chance for real love?Complete
