Beneath the Skin

De: Kyla Stone

To save her life, she must risk her heart....

For 18-year-old Sidney Shaw, life pretty much sucks. Her mom's a drunk. Her dad's worse. At school, she's bullied by her ex-best friend. And cutting no longer brings the relief she craves.

When Sidney is forced into group counseling, she meets perfect, popular Arianna, the type of girl who grieves over a broken nail. But Arianna has secrets of her own. She might prove herself a friend - if Sidney can let her guard down. Then, there's Lucas, the sweet and funny new guy who sees straight through her tough, snarky facade.

But Sidney's wounds go deeper than anyone knows. When her secrets threaten to unravel her, Sidney must choose. How far is she willing to go to protect her family? And who can she turn to when the unthinkable happens?

Contains mature themes.

I love your work

This is differ t from your other two series but still was impressed with your detailed writing

A brave and unapologetic novel.

The redemptive process found in this novel is as raw as it is honest. This story hurt my heart, but it was worth the pain to gain a glimpse into situations I have not experienced. This story will stay with me for a long time.

Best book I’ve heard.

I liked that this went to such detail about dealing with pain, physical and psychological and that those who will listen can help. It made me sad, but hopeful.

That young people really deal with this in their lives is disturbing!!

The subject was SO sad! Young people shouldn't be dealing with such horrors .... EVER!

Emotional and raw

The book is about such a difficult, but all too common, form of violence toward young women. It was very well written and I loved how the main character was supported and helped onto the road to recovery. Well narrated also!
