“Those damn Summers parents! If they couldn’t treat you like their own, why take you back at all? Over a single chip–they starved you for two days? What kind of people do that?

Natalie didn’t stop him. Every trace of her miserable childhood had come from the Summers family; when she was eighteen, she’d nearly been beaten to death by them.

Now that they wanted to reconcile, it was only because she was a Stone.

Natalie had never thought of herself as kind.
