Careless
Careless

Coming-of-age tale of love's complex conditions.

"Careless" plunges into the turbulent life of Bess, a character that resonates with anyone who has grappled with the challenges of young adulthood and the yearning for acceptance. Your journey through Bess's eyes will be both poignant and eye-opening, as she navigates a life filled with more questions than answers. This is not just Bess's story; it's a mirror to the complexities of foster care, first loves, and the search for a place in the world.

Description

Sometimes it's easy to fall between the cracks... At 3.04pm on a hot, sticky day in June, Bess finds out she's pregnant. She could tell her social worker Henry, but he's useless. She should tell her foster mother, Lisa, but she won't understand. She really ought to tell Boy, but she hasn't spoken to him in weeks. Bess knows more than anyone that love doesn't come without conditions. But this isn't a love story...
