Love and Sorrow

Meara Lovechild is anything but normal. Normalcy doesn't apply to one who has been blind from birth, and diagnosed autistic at the age of two, unable to be touched by anyone – not even her parents. Tutored since the age of six, she is unexpectedly thrust into the school system at the age of thirteen, and learns the true brutality of teenage bullying. Brutally beaten, thirteen year old Meara finds her world turned upside down, and Martial Arts is the key for control over the elemental power awakening within her. A deadly family secret sends her already turbulent life on a tailspin of lies, and deceit, as a deadly Assassin sets eyes on destroying everything she holds dear.
