Pain. Betrayal. Denial. Sacrifice. Hope.
One girl is escaping a world of abuse while another flees from her rapist. One girl slips away from slavery as another one runs away from a life of crime. One girl battles poverty while another one fights to win her life back.

And they all found a way out — a new life, new friendships, new chances, and new love. This is their story.
Meet the RUNAWAY girls. While their lives may have started out in dire straits and their paths may twist and turn, they’re all looking for redemption and happiness. They’re all learning how to be stronger, braver, and wiser. And whether they know it or not, they’re all selfless and relentless, making sacrifices in the hopes of a better future, never stopping until they make it.

Will keep you wanting more!
I enjoyed this series, the stories were raw but ended in happy endings for the most part. I do wish each story went more in depth though. each book is around 10 chapters, I feel stretching them out more and not having them be as rushed would have made this a 5 star series. I will be reading boundless next and hope that book is as good as the rest, well worth the money spent on them.

Loved it!!! This was such an heart wrenching story about some girls who had nothing and they ended up in a very bad place!! This series will open your eyes to a cruel, cruel world with lots of monsters!!! It will tug at your heart strings and leave you an emotional wreck!!! But in the end it all ends well for all!!! Loved it and I highly recommend !!!!

Stunning!
Stories of women overcoming some pretty horrific odds combined together in this collection of stories make for a fantastic roller coaster of emotions for the readers. Well worth every penny!! I haven't enjoyed a book this thought provoking in a long time!

I laughed. I cried. I felt so much
Both series in this bundle evoked so much emotion. I truly enjoyed all the characters and their journeys. Couldn't put it down. Maybe I'll actually sleep tonight now I'm done.

Overall, there were some fantastic elements to the books making up this collection. The back story of each girl was so heartbreaking, and raw, that I wanted to hug each of them. The romances in each book were nothing more than a blip to me. It felt very strange to have such a gritty past, only to come upon insta-love afterwards.
My favorite stories were Jasmine, Blue and Pumpkin.
But the final story...Mama's...I admit that I skimmed a large portion of the time that she was in prison, and after she got out. It simply held no interest for me. But the end!!!!!! Never would have thought it would end the way it did. Woah.

Lexie Ray you should be making money on hardcover books. You definitely know how to weave a story.I also just finished Worthy. I did not watch TV because I could not put your books down. I always wanted to know what was going to happen next. Although I can't afford to buy many books, I do appreciate you and your work and the way that I was able to get them. I would have never imagined how good they were and I appreciate the fact hat they weren't cliffhangers to get you to buy more books. I do go to the library for books so please keep writing and I will be your faithful fan.

Wow this box set was amazing. The first book starts off featuring all the girls and the life they led. Each subsequent book is about one of the girls featured in book 1. Some of the books are hard reading due to the content but are a great read. Each of the girls have had a bleak start to life and at the Nightclub they did not get better. The only way thinks picked up was their escape and the way they moved on. Some have a quick HEA and some take time to move on.

The plot for each book is interesting, but they are all so badly written. Logic is thrown out the window, the rhythm of the book is too rushed. In just a few pages it can go from a loving mother to a bad mother or from a virgin who runs from home to protect her virtue to one who easily sells it when a stranger asks her.
I expected more inside, more emotion. It really didn't do it for me.

Great series
I loved reading this series. It flowed from one character's story to the next and no story was exactly alike. Similar in ways but real life is like that.

I enjoyed reading this series. I read all of the books as fast as I could. Each book was complete but was connected with all of the other books. A great idea.
