Starting From Now by J.L. Redington

Amy Harper had few options in life. Her mother was a drug addict, the men she brought home were frightening and evil, and there was no one in her life to protect her, so Amy learned to protect herself. She had no idea that one day a woman would take over the role in Amy’s life and become that protector.

Emerald was a woman who would see through the rough exterior gained from a life of fear and hiding, and into the heart of an innocent. This is the story of how Amy came to walk through those large Anderson Corporation doors and take her place in the Anderson family. It is a coming of age story, one filled with losses that would give her the strength she needed to become a self she could respect. This is Amy’s story.
