After enduring years of neglect and cruelty from her mother and stepfather, Ariana's life changes drastically when tragedy brings her under the guardianship of five brothers she's never met and they never even knew they had a sister. For her brothers, learning they have a sister is an unwelcome surprise. Suspicious and reluctant, her brothers see Aria as an outsider, a stranger disrupting the fragile balance of their lives. For Aria, their home is both a new beginning and a constant reminder of the family that left her behind. Haunted by the pain of her past, Aria struggles to adjust, her every action guarded and her trust hard to earn. As her brothers try to understand her, they begin to glimpse the scars she hides and the strength she carries. Little by little, resentment turns to empathy, and the walls between them start to crumble. But just as the siblings begin to find common ground, the secrets and trauma of Aria's old life threaten to tear them apart. Together, they must decide whether they can overcome the shadows of the past to forge a family and whether Aria can finally find a place to belong.

ORIGINALLY BOUND IN DARKNESS Lacuna--A blank space; A missing part When she was 5 they called her a monster. They accused her of something that was never her fault. Something that had everything and nothing to do with her at the same time. Something she had no control over. They told her that she shouldn't exist and never would belong and then shipped her off like she was nothing. Even as intelligent as she was, she was still young enough that she didn't understand the names they called her. The things they said about her. They carted her off and forced her to grow up in a world they had never shown her how to navigate. She had to learn without them. Now they want her back but she's not the same naïve girl they knew. They forced her to change. That little girl they knew is dead because of them and she has no intention of letting them forget it. THIS IS WLW. IF THIS ISN'T YOUR CUP OF TEA, DON'T DRINK IT.
