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.

Nine-year-old Nelly has spent her life being shuffled from one foster home to the next, her fragile heart and quiet spirit crushed under the weight of neglect and abuse. Small for her age and often overlooked, she's learned to survive by keeping her head down and her words even fewer. But when the police storm her foster home and take her into custody, Nelly's world is turned upside down. At the station, she learns something she never expected-she has a family. A father and five older brothers, none of whom she's ever met. Whisked into a world of wealth and mystery, Nelly is thrust into a life she doesn't understand. Her father, Damian, is cold and commanding, her brothers a whirlwind of personalities, from kind and caring to distant and brash. But underneath the surface, this family holds secrets of their own-secrets about their dangerous world and how far they'll go to protect the little sister they never knew they had. Nelly's quiet resilience might be the only thing that can bridge the gap between her broken past and a future she's too scared to believe in.

COMPLETED Living a life you didn't sign up for is hard, but doing so while feeling lost is harder. Dylan Amity is a musical prodigy. He could play a range of instruments, from the electric guitar to his violin. He lived, ate, and breathed music and was on track to becoming the orchestra's lead violinist. He was ready to become one of history's best composers. But he decided to place his dreams on hold for a while when he found out that his dad, the CEO of Amity Industry, was diagnosed with stage three lung cancer. His dad's death was expected, but the way he died wasn't. After the reading of the will, Dylan is faced with the harsh reality that you don't always get what you want. Following a short period of grief, Dylan is thrust into a world of business, responsibilities, and guardianship. He never wanted to be CEO, but now he has to because it's what his dad wanted.

Trying to act like papa. But guess what, Dylan, you never cared about me or what I did!" She screamed, taking steps back towards the stairs. "You never cared when I was a baby, you didn't care when I was a toddler, and guess what! You don't care now. You're only pretending to care to make yourself feel better. But you don't! No one fucking cares."

"You're lying! She would never do such a thing." I was in denial as I shook my head repeatedly to clear my vision 'Stop please, do this at another time.' I pleaded with a cracked broken voice that made me sound so worthless and so vulnerable I could feel my heart trying to rip itself part into two different half's and it hurt. It hurt too much but I kept my mouth shut from crying out loud or letting even a small whimper escapee my parted lips "I'm not lying." He spoke tenderly eyeing me with his soft brown eyes as if I was a delicate rose captured inside a glass, ready to break apart at any given moment now
