Elliot stared at him. People didn't do this for others. They were all about how much they could bleed out of you by the end of the day, especially for a boy like him. He'd seen it too many times.
"Take the offer," Isaiah said. "Insta-families only come once in a lifetime, and this is yours."
An abusive past. A new beginning.
Elliot Jersey turned up on the Russells' doorstep, sick with the flu and filled with a lot of secrets. A knife fight with his dad forced him to run from home and filled him with a lot of self-doubt.
But soon, staying with them feels like a mistake. He has no right to fall in love with their daughter. A girl as great as her has no business with a boy like him.
Nor after how he's behaved does he deserve to become a part of their family.
