After fleeing her abusive ex in the middle of the night, Chloe Dawson arrives in a small coastal town with nothing but a duffel bag, a crying six-month-old baby, and the last of her savings. She rents a tiny apartment where the walls are paper-thin. Next door lives Sergeant Mason Kane, disciplined, exhausted, emotionally closed off, and currently on leave between military assignments. After years in the army, silence is the only thing that helps him sleep. Then the baby starts crying every night. At first, Mason is irritated. Chloe is terrified of him. Every knock on the door reminds her of the man she escaped.

They hated her at first... but they had no idea who she really was. Serena Carter once had a family - loud, messy, beautifully imperfect. It wasn't always easy, but it was hers. Then one accident ripped it all away, leaving her alone and unwanted. Now she's sent to live with the Morettis: four brothers and a father who see her as nothing more than the living reminder of betrayal. The stain on their perfect legacy. Ten months. That's all she needs to survive until she turns eighteen and can walk away. But hate is a dangerous thing. It turns into obsession. Into protectiveness. Into something no one expected. Because Serena has secrets - ones even she doesn't fully understand. And in a world where power is everything, she's about to prove she belongs where everyone swore she didn't. She isn't looking for love. She's fighting for something stronger: a place to finally call home.

An alternate universe of The Moretti Heiress. (Can be read as a standalone) Everyone assumed Serena Moretti had it all. The powerful father. The four brothers. The mansion. The name that made people step aside when she walked into a room. What they didn't see was the girl who ate alone. Who stopped asking for things at six years old because the answer was always nothing. Who learned to patch up her own wounds because no one was coming to check. The Morettis didn't lose their daughter. They just never looked at her long enough to find her. Some things are worse than being abandoned. Being forgotten is one of them. #1 out of 1.18k : onlygirl #1 out of 19.3k : rivalry #1 out of 23.4k : familyproblems
