F-I-N-E Is a Four-Letter Word

By R. Jetleb

Tragedy lands 14-year-old Allison in the foster care system, bouncing from home to home, trying to find a family that fits. Despite constantly changing homes and social workers, Allison is just FINE; everything is FINE. Life improves when Allison moves in with the Rosenbergs; 16-years-old now, she's making friends and has a boyfriend, Anthony, whom she loves. Despite the Rosenbergs tough rules, Allison dares to be happy, dreaming of building her own family with Anthony after high school and finally having what she longs for. Life is honestly, actually FINE. But a set of tragedies destroy Allison's dreams and leaves her angry and broken on the streets of Toronto, running from foster care and running from her feelings. Lonely and hurting, she befriends a young runaway, attempting to rebuild her broken dream of having a family of her own, only to have it shatter and leave her alone on the streets again. Nothing is FINE, and it never will be again. Or will it? After a terrifying encounter, Allison meets foster mother, Laura Winters, dedicated to helping troubled teen girls, just like Allison. Allison has never been with anyone like the Winters but is sure it can't last-sooner or later, they'll get rid of her, too. As months pass and Allison is still with them, a glimmer of hope appears; F-I-N-E has become a four-letter word, but maybe, just maybe, it doesn't have to be anymore.
