Cloudburst — V.C. Andrews

OUT OF A CLEAR BLUE SKY . . .
Since being taken in by wealthy Mrs. Jordan March and living in her exquisite home like a daughter, Sasha Porter's traumatic past -- destitute on the streets, and the shattering accident that killed her mother -- seems like a fading nightmare. Beautiful and sophisticated, as bold and daring as her "sister," Kiera March, Sasha still keeps her mother's wise words close to her heart: never fully trust anyone. Inside her privileged new world, it's advice that will prove more precious than gold.. . .

CAN ANYTHING STOP THE DOWNPOUR?
Against the wishes of Jordan's husband, Donald, Sasha attracts the attention of Duane Banks, a shy, handsome athlete, and maneuvers her way into his heart. But Duane's hidden torment soon explodes in a horrific tragedy that pulls Sasha into a flood of guilt and despair. And when someone she thought she could trust targets her vulnerability, Sasha recalls her mother's warnings -- and a violent storm of dark deceptions and shocking family secrets is unleashed. Will she sink or swim?
