Her Mother has been gone since she turned 9. Daun Hartford, age 15 now, has been learning how to cope with this for several years and is on the verge of her breaking point. She doesn't know where, she doesn't know why, and she doesn't know how her mom disappeared. Day after day she writes letters continuously telling her mom what its like without her there, in hopes of getting a reply back. Now her dad, on the other hand, is an alcoholic to the maximum and there isn't a moment he is sober. Daun never knew why he began drinking so suddenly and heavily either. She still has hope; that little spark of confidence as she waits for the day for her life to mend itself back together again.

Sincerely Luna Rose
Dear Nobody, My name is Luna Rose Wesley and I'm just like any other girl my age. I have some secrets, I'm afraid of the future, I have some complicated relationships and some amazing friends, and I'm just trying to do anything that I can to survive. But as the days pass, it seems like surviving in my world is becoming more difficult with every minute. You see, without any money, my family is forced to live in in an apartment building that's smack dab in the center of our rundown part of the city. And my mother is just a work of art. She is now addicted to drugs, and she isn't trying very hard at all to try to get us out of our inner-city situation. Living in constant fear, not only of what's outside my window at night, but also of my violent dealing brother living in the room across the hall, I have to find a way to cope without putting a bullet in my skull like so many of my fallen brethren. And my coping mechanism is to write letters to nobody- to you- and sending it to an address that doesn't exist. I need somebody to talk to without that somebody thinking that I'm looking for pity, so I've found you. Nobody. Thanks for listening. Sincerely, Luna Rose (Rated Mature for the mentioning of sex, drug use, violence, and profane language. Does not contain actual sex scenes.)Complete

Sincerely, Your Flower
"Sometimes there are no words, no clever quotes to neatly sum up what's happened. Sometimes you do everything right, everything exactly right, and still you feel like you failed. Did it need to end that way? How many more times will I allow myself to look into the abyss? How many more times before I won't ever recover the pieces of myself that I've allowed someone to take? Like I said, sometimes there are no words or clever quotes to neatly sum up what's happened that day or any other day."
