About the Book
Don't Run is the raw, unflinching story of a young girl named Miranda, who is forced to confront the darkest side of life before she even has the chance to dream. Battling through abuse, abandonment, and relentless struggles, she finds herself in a fight not just for survival—but for the will to keep going.
Every heartbreak, every betrayal, every moment of terror feels like a weight too heavy to bear. But Miranda is no stranger to pain. Instead of running from the chaos, she faces it head-on, determined to rebuild herself one scar at a time. Her journey is not just about surviving the hell she's been born into—it's about finding the strength to rise and make her own future, no matter the odds.
A story of resilience, courage, and never giving up, Don't Run will take readers to the edge of their emotions and remind them that even in the darkest of places, survival is possible.
This is not just a story—it's a testament to the human spirit's capacity to endure, heal, and ultimately triumph.
What Readers Are Saying
Reviews from our community
"This book encompasses everything 8th grade life was for us. It happened exactly as Miranda explains. From the time we met to skipping classes with Cody. Miranda writes a beautiful memoir and tribute story about life as a troubled teen, rising above the troubles, a made family. Loss and self destruction. I can't wait to continue the series."
— Samantha Pfleider
"This book was exceptional, and I thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of it. I found it so engaging that I read it in just three days. From beginning to end, it captured my attention. I am looking forward to the possibility of a sequel and eagerly await any future publications."
