This isn’t your typical true crime story.
Brittani Ard steps back into the shadowy labyrinth of memories, scars, and fragile ties that bind us to our past. Where wounds still ache and the bonds of connection blur between salvation and entrapment. After revealing her own story in the first 8 chapters, she’s pulling at the threads of the past—threads so delicate they threaten to unravel everything.
This time, it’s not just her story. It’s the stories of others whose lives intertwine with hers in ways no one could have predicted. A woman searches for a photograph of her abusive ex, but the picture holds more than just memories. A foster youth exchanges black trash bags for a voice that refuses to be silenced anymore, revealing a haunting past that demands to be heard. And a story of rekindled love, as strength and vulnerability collide to reveal what was always meant to be.
You Probably Think This Story’s About You is raw, haunting, and achingly human—a tapestry of messy, beautiful lessons stitched together by the lives we touch and the stories we share. The secrets we carried no longer have power over us

[Cash’s Story Part 2/2]
Not every foster parent is equipped to navigate the delicate balance of care and control—and not all have the best intentions. Cash returns to the shadowed emotional landscape of the Love family household, hoping to understand the world she survived. What she uncovers, however, is far darker than she expected.
Now a mother herself, Cash wades through the murky waters of her past, determined to break the cycles of trauma and be the parent she never had. But confronting the ghosts of her childhood means facing uncomfortable truths about the system that failed her. As she unearths the secrets of her survival, Cash finds the courage to raise her voice—not only to share her harrowing story but to push for real change in the foster care system, speaking out to the very legislative bodies that have ignored children like her for far too long.
The deeper Cash digs into her past, the more she realizes: healing and justice come with a price, and some battles are far from over.
