Excerpt of Legacy by Molly Cochran

I was sixteen years old when I discovered exactly who––and what––I was. Before then, I suppose I wasn't much of anything, just a girl who'd somehow managed to spend most of my life in southern Florida without becoming blonde, athletic, or comfortable with boys.

I'd lived with my father, who did his level best to turn me into the biggest geek in Palm Beach. His main contribution to my discovering myself was to ditch me in a boarding school fifteen hundred miles from everything I knew. Thanks.

I was being sent away because my did didn't want me anymore.
