Breaking Into Light

I am the dust that is swept under the rug. I am broken and tormented by red nightmares. I don't want to be another orphan lost in a corrupt system but what choice do I have? My home is gone... until I meet Phin and Mari. They make me believe that ice doesn't cover my heart, that maybe home is not lost to me. Riley thought she could pretend to be normal but she finds herself unable to stop the nightmares that haunt her, even after running across the country to escape them. Just when she begins to feel like she can disappear in a small New England fishing town, she ends up in the hospital after an accident, setting her on a fateful path in which she is forced to start facing the violent events of her past. When a longtime friend re-enters her life, Riley decides to stop running. She slowly begins to reveal the things that torment her and finds herself falling in love with a man who refuses to let her run away. In an attempt to face her darkness, Riley returns to her home, the place where tragedy threatened to pull her under and meets a mysterious stranger who changes everything. Thrust into an all too familiar situation with a dark underbelly, Riley puts everything on the line to atone for her past in a series of life or death decisions.
