"Why do you look at me like that?" she whispered. Caiden swallowed hard. "Because I know you," he said. "I just...don't know how." "I feel like I should remember you," she replied. Caiden's voice cracked. "You do," he murmured. "Just...not here." He touched his chest. "Here." One chapter released every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday♡ --- When the girl who wasn't supposed to exist walks into his school, everything the Reeves brothers buried begins to burn again. Sixteen-year-old Cielle Monroe has never been allowed outside. Closed off to the world, homeschooled, and only ever knowing the world of ballet, she is surprised when her mother wants to up and move to Colorado. It's new, and now she's having to learn how to make friends and survive in a world her mother deemed dark and evil. Shortly after they relocate, her mother's sudden disappearance forces her into a world she doesn't understand. New town. New school. New rules. She's trying to survive quietly...until she meets Caiden Reeves, the boy who feels too familiar to be a stranger. What she doesn't know: eight years ago, a crash killed Caiden's parents and his twin sister. What he doesn't know: that sister is standing right in front of him. As Cielle's mother's secrets surface and the truth behind that night unravels, love and bloodlines collide in a haunting story of family, forgiveness, and the danger of loving what was meant to stay hidden. -- A tender coming-of-age journey of love, forgiveness, family, and finding the strength to trust what her heart has known all along. For the girls who wanted brothers who'd show up, and a soulmate who always would, this one belongs to you. ♡ - All inspiration photos were found on Pinterest.

BOOK TWO Blaire is older now. Beautiful. Kind. Confident. In the last few years, things with her brothers have changed. Closer than ever, the family has stayed true to their word- honest, open and yet still as protective as ever before. Blaire is living as normal a teenage life as she can- Parties, hobbies, school and crushes. But, with the threat of her family's enemies lingering, a normal teenage life isn't always possible. What happens when Blaire and her friends realize girls in their school are going missing... and no one is doing anything about it? Will she uncover the truth? Or will she fall into a sea of lies again?

Fifteen-year-old Ainsley Myers doesn't look like someone who's afraid. She's quiet, loud when needed to be, flat, and sarcastic. The kind of girl who fills silence with humor and defiance, who keeps people laughing just far enough away that they never get too close. Where her twin sister Athena learned to move gently through the world, Ainsley learned to hit it first, using noise, wit, and distance as armor. Athena was protected. Ainsley was not. Athena grew up kind, soft-spoken, and trusting, never fully knowing the depth of what her sister endured, only sensing that something was wrong. Ainsley never told her. Not because she didn't love her, but because she didn't know how to explain it. Because the worst parts didn't feel explainable. Because silence felt safer than truth. When their current foster dad is arrested, everything they believe about their lives collapses. They weren't abandoned. They were stolen. Waiting for them is a family that never stopped searching: a father who left space at the table, brothers raised on stories and hope, and a home built on patience instead of punishment. For Athena, the return feels like a chance to finally breathe. For Ainsley, it feels like danger. Because sarcasm doesn't survive gentleness. Armor doesn't work in a house built on patience. And distance becomes impossible in a family that refuses to give up on you. As Athena begins to settle into safety, Ainsley resists closeness with jokes, walls, and emotional deflection. But the longer this family stays, the harder it becomes to pretend she doesn't care. The harder it becomes to keep fighting a world that no longer looks like a threat. Surrounded by people who don't demand, don't push, and don't leave, Ainsley must face the one truth she's spent her life outrunning: That maybe she doesn't have to be loud to be safe. That maybe she doesn't have to be sharp to survive. And that love doesn't have to hurt to be real.

Anneliese is an empathetic, goofy, outgoing young woman who has struggled finding a place to discover herself. Often looking for new ways to meet friends, she wouldn't pass the opportunity to chat someone up. Even a stranger at the diner she works at to pass time and support herself. A dedicated man takes to the nativity of Anneliese. He's direct and prefers to keep to himself. Even an isolated man by choice can't withstand Anneliese's pull. Gravitating towards her, he manages to bring her a sense of comfort to the new beginnings in life. Not all beginnings are as true as they let off. ~ ❀ ~ I can't help but stare at her. Her face, lips, and smile, and her nose. Even her long, curled lashes. "Let's do a butterfly kiss!" She exclaims, pulling my face close suddenly. Kiss? My heart hammers in my chest, my breath hitching. Her small hands hold my face close to hers. It's not very forceful, I could pull away if I wanted to, but I let her have control. Her hands are warm and soft against my jaw. Getting closer, her eyes lashes flutter and I find myself holding my breath. She brushes her lashes to mine, her breath fanning against my lips. Subconsciously, I lean forward, wanting my lips to be on hers. June flutter her lashes, grazing her lashes to mine. Out of nowhere she bursts out in a fit of laughter. I flinch back. Butterfly kiss. That was not a fucking kiss. ~ ❀ ~ #1 cliche 2025 #1 sweatheart 2025 #1 opposites 2026 *Warning* Mature themes will be covered (language, actions, etc).
