Gisella Roth has seen more than she should have. As a driven young adult striving to make her own way, both finding out how the world works and how to find her place in it, Gisella must first grapple with her twisted past, a looming darkness that is always pressing at the edges of her thoughts and shaping her words and actions-whether she realizes it or not. Through her father's abandonment, abuse at the hands of her caretakers, and ever-changing living conditions, Gisella was forced to make the most of her childhood in foster care as a tiny but resilient ward of the state. As she grows up, blossoming from hesitant child to lovely young woman, Gisella must come to terms with her difficult experiences, facing challenges throughout a turbulent courtship, intense heartache, friendship from surprising companions, and the aggressive confrontation of the abuser who has haunted her entire life. In this three-part story-a roller-coaster ride of how the broken pieces of a life can fall back into place with hard work and the right encouragement-Gisella fixes her gaze on her own bright future... if only she can get it all exactly right.
