betrayal burns fire love murder outcasts secrets siblings

After a house fire shakes Elise Daniels and the whole town of Dillingham, leaving one dead and countless others injured, they're left with unanswered questions and a suspect that just doesn't make sense: Elise's older brother, Aiden. Desperate for a culprit to blame, the town's confusion quickly turns to harsh assumptions and cold judgment; branding Elise and her family as their new resident outcasts. Despite having opinions that seem to clash with people she thought would always be on her side, she sets out to prove on her own that Aiden didn't start the fire . . . but someone in Dillingham did. As the puzzle begins to piece itself together and truths are brought to the surface, Elise realizes that the people she thought she knew the most are the people she really doesn't know at all. And the arsonist she's been so desperately looking for, is a lot closer than she thinks. 

In a small town, very few things stay hidden. But the things that do, well, they're hidden for a reason.All Rights Reserved

And sometimes choices are made that really are irreversible.

Ending up in her father's hometown a few months after the day her life changed forever, Morgan finds her life changing once again, and she only hopes that this time will be for the better.

Dissolving by wee_me

****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.
