"Mia Lee was a victim. But Paige Cassidy is a survivor."Mia has had rough life. Being pulled into the drug world as a child to help support her father's habit. For years she does whatever he ask. But when that is no longer enough, her father attempts to force her into a more lucrative business. Mia makes a choice that changes everything, and becomes Paige."It was either him or me. And for once, I chose me."On the run, Mia/Paige ends up in a small Virgina town and finds more than she ever imagined. Mia is a tough girl, but vulnerable as well. Meeting Hank, Quinn, Tabitha and Tristan changes everything. She has a job, a home, and friends. As she builds relationships, she finally feels like she belongs, receiving the love and acceptance she has always yearned for. But will her past come back to haunt her?"We both have secrets, things we wish we could take back, but can't. And that's okay, because when I'm with you, those secrets don't rule me, they don't define me."Something Like Normal is an intense, suspenseful read - with just the right amount of romance, humor and sexual tension. It is well written and well paced story. I was on the edge of my seat of this last half of this one. That ending...gah. It killed me. I can't wait to see what happens next."I never really understood the saying, 'I'd rather die fighting, than die for nothing at all.' But now...now, I get it.
