Change is something that Ashalynn Ella Durby never wished for.
Her life was perfect. It only took one moment, one accident, to change everything. To make her life unravel.
Ashalynn isn't quite sure of her rickety life anymore. She used to be better. She used to have it all. She used to be the It Girl that everyone talked about. Popularity was a birthright, and she never expected it to be taken away. She had money, she had friends. And she never thought that it could all disappear in a blink of an eye.
It started with her mother. Death is a one-way trip that does not stop for anything. Not even the closest bonds. Death destroys everything.
Then her fiancé. He was the perfect boy, anything she could have hoped for and all that was destroyed too. He left her. Left her heart on the pavement to shatter in the rain.
Her father marries again to a cruel woman with wicked daughters. And there, Ashalynn learns that her life can get much worse than it is.
Locked in the servant's quarter, Ashalynn has turned into a cynical version of the girl she used to be. Slammed against lockers in school and unwanted by everyone, that is how Ashalynn is now. No one can ever relate the girl she was with who she is now.
But like change can take everything away from you, it can give you everything back.
When Damen Charms steps into her life, she knows that everything she thought she knew will change, for the better or worse.Creative Commons (CC) Attribution
