Elizabeth Grey is eleven, diabetic, and invisible in her own home.
Her mother is cold, obsessed with wealth and status, and barely notices when Elizabeth skips meals or comes home pale and shaking. Her only comfort is a worn stuffed bird and the quiet corners she hides in at school-until even that safety starts to slip away.
When her mother announces she's marrying a powerful man named Ethan Kingston, Elizabeth is forced into a new home with four unfamiliar boys and a father who rules with silence.
She doesn't know what's worse: being alone... or being seen for the first time.
