No Good Deed

Lisa feels the lie slip from her between her teeth. She does know how she feels. She feels like the heart of a dying star, collapsing, crumbling in on itself until all that remains is dust. Her family is dead, and people look at her with pity.She hates it. She wants to rage and scream and drag them low. America was supposed to be safe. Things like this weren’t supposed to happen. Children were not meant to be parentless. They were not meant to be left alone with only memories and the taste of blood for comfort.It isn’t fair. ORLisa Castle lives and gets adopted by the most unlikely couple.
