{COMPLETED} Amelia was adopted at age 15 by a family in the same town she grew up in, just on the other side. She's trying to move on and forget her horrible past, but people from then keep popping up in her life. She doesn't believe she will ever truly be free of them or happy. Then one day, something starts changing. She starts feeling happy and herself again. Will that feeling last, or will it all be ripped from her all over again? ***Disclaimer: This story deals with very mature themes. Many different forms of abuse and self harming will come up. If this is not for you, please skip past this book. I will try and put trigger warnings before each chapter if it deals with either abuse or self harm.
