Alderwood - Paperback

Eden Benim never thought she'd get to call Alderwood University home. Ten years after her father's death, she finds herself locked in the estate she once loved, serving her evil stepmother and two abusive stepsisters, kept away from the only real family she had ever known. The happy memories of her past are lost to her, foggy and hard to reach.

When, by all miracles, she's allowed at Alderwood University, those memories start to tug back. Who are these teachers who seemed so close to her parents? What secrets are they keeping from her? Especially her estranged godfather, the school's own headmaster. And who is this boy who can bully everyone restlessly yet exhibit so much kindness? Why won't he stop pursuing her despite her rejections? And why doesn't she hate him? Why can't she keep him out of her head?

With memories of her past unraveling and the leash she has tying her to her stepfamily, will this boy be able to help her make sense of it all? Will her new unlikely friendships keep her from drowning in the fog, or will the shadows that have been chasing her since childhood finally consume her?
