Read by Kelly Jean Torres

Born to parents who could not escape their battles with addiction and mental illness, Kelly entered foster care before her first birthday. At ten, Kelly and her two sisters were adopted by the Atwoods, who moved them from the busy suburbs of Chicago to a remote Michigan town, where Kelly found herself trapped in an abusive home. After the death of their adoptive mother, a darker side of their adoptive father emerged, and at sixteen, Kelly made a desperate escape.She thought freedom meant she could leave her traumatic past behind her, but every misstep forward was haunted by an undeniable truth: the pain from her childhood was everywhere, in everything, and threatened to destroy her chances at the life she'd always longed for- unless she turned around to face it. Saving the Lost Girl is Kelly's testament to healing, courage, and the belief that a life of peace and fulfillment is within reach, no matter how your story began
