When Innocence Burns: The Rise of a Betrayed Adopted Daughter

From the back cover

When the flood engulfed our home, both my brother and husband chose to save Cathryn Andrews.

She was the daughter of our family who had been lost for many years and was recently rediscovered.

My right leg was fractured under her intentional, brutal collision.

As I was rescued, I saw Cathryn sobbing in my husband's embrace.

"Harlee Reed kept pressing me down, trying to drown me in the flood."

Upon hearing this, both my husband and brother stared darkly at me lying on the stretcher.

"Harlee, you've stolen Cathryn's life for so many years, and now you even want to harm her!"

My brother, Kaiden Foster, sneered at me, while my husband, Jared Reed, tenderly shielded Cathryn in his arms.

The two exchanged words, then picked up nearby stones and approached me. "It seems we've spoiled you too much over the years, Harlee. Perhaps this will make you think twice."

Their menacing faces were unfamiliar to me.

I struggled desperately but was pinned down.

Seeing them raise the stones high, ready to smash my leg, I closed my eyes.

I had to leave!
