    About this ebook

    **First published in the We Are Young Anthology

     

    When trouble follows you everywhere you go, your choices for the future are limited.

     

    Jameson Avery Jones was always the prettiest girl wherever she went and instead of making her liked, it only brought misfortune. Hated by her female peers and coveted by her male ones, nowhere was safe. Love was a word in the dictionary and would never apply to her. Dating was a game she played in online games, and she was convinced it would stay that way.

    A sudden change forces Jameson to move in with her estranged grandparents in the small town of Missouri and the connections she made in that small town may be her salvation or the end of her.

     

    Can the girl nicknamed "Inaccessible Maiden" finally form lifelong bonds or will she be forever alone?

      Dear Mum, There are still times when I go to call you. It seems inexplicable to me that you actually died. I used to wonder how it would feel, and after 16 years, I’m still not sure. The main thing I want to tell you is that I get it now. I understan

      To all those who support me, your patience means everything. Thank you!

      CHAPTER 1

      Emotional scars are tricky. From the outside, you look perfectly fine but inside lives a frayed rope barely holding together. At least if the scars were physical, the pain could be explained in a way that could possibly be understood. However, the unseen pain is rarely believed. No one had anything to say to an emotionally scarred person. They were awkward and uncomfortable as if they were more inconvenienced than you, the person trying to overcome the trauma that caused the scars to begin with. Childhood was supposed to be easy, but mine never was. Children could be cruel, especially when they
