Finding Hope In Heartbreak

Marjorie Long is a broken girl
For as long as she can remember she's suffered from episodes of anxiety brought on by years of verbal and mental abuse at the hands of her mother. Her only saving graces, her brother Carson and her best and only friend Sierra, are both gone.
 Life without them is just one horrible day set on repeat, but she’s determined to hold on even if it’s by the skin of her teeth, waiting for the day that she can escape her mother's hold. 
On the one year anniversary of Sierra’s death, she is rocked to her core by cruelty that not even she expected from her mother. In her most desperate hour, Marjorie makes a decision that she can’t take back. 
When she wakes up in the hospital after being found by her estranged brother, her life takes an even more confusing and tumultuous turn when she's sent to Brighton House for Troubled Youth. 
  There she meets a doctor who not only wants the best for her but gives her the motherly love and warmth she's wanted her whole life.And four people, who, like her, are struggling with demons of their own.
Avery, a lesbian who was sent away from home by her ultra conservative parents.
Malcolm, recent amputee and former All-American Texas football star struggling to find his new identity.
Bodie, an alcoholic who uses jokes to deflect from his lack of confidence.
And Zachery, who witnessed the murder-suicide of his parents after a tragic accident.
With the help of these unexpected allies, she comes to terms with the demons that have plagued her her whole life, while dealing with the newly found and never experienced  love and desire brought on by her budding relationships forged through trials, tribulations, and trust.
But just when she thinks she's getting a grasp on life, her world is upended, and she is forced to grapple with the repercussions of the familial bombshells that have been dropped on her.  Through it all, she and her chosen heartmates find their way to being who they were truly meant to be as they grow together and find love in a hopeless place.
