Emily-May Francis lives with her mother. After her father died when she was 12 she ditched all her "peppy" clothes and became a lonely girl with only a dog as her friend. She likes it that way. But Things dont last that way for long as her new neighbours move in.

Perfect image? Well honey, not anymore. Rayne Willows is the typically perfect golden girl. But truthfully? She's not. No one sees past the perfect image to discover who really Rayne is. How her parents and so called 'perfect' boyfriend abuse her. And how the many bracelets on her arms cover old scars and new cuts. No one. Because she's broken and unhappy inside. But she's sick of it all and she wants out . How? Maybe with the help of a certain bad boy, who knows what will happen to Rayne and the secrets that the bad boy has been hiding from her.

Hailey's life has been pretty normal and trouble free so far. If you categorise growing up with your all-male neighbours trouble free... After coming back from Australia to the US of A she comes back to more than just her home. She comes back to find that the McLane boys have know grown up into a family of 9 boys ranging from super hot to just plain adorable. What do you do when you're thrown back into the chaos that the McLane's call normal life? How do you deal with living among a male-dominated household? Is there a way to make a waterproof camera NOT water proof? Hailey may not have all the answers and she may be wondering these exact questions herself but join her anyway as she goes through the ups and downs of being a teenage girl hopelessly stuck in a life that's anything but normal. A/N: The first few chapters aren't really that good and the story may seem a bit slow at the start but it does get better if you keep reading! I got the main idea for my story from the book "Megan Meade's Guide to the McGowan boys" and I also put in a few of my own experiences in too! (Only SOME things in here have happened to me, not everything!) Also! I am Australian.... sooooo if I get some facts wrong about how things go in the US i'm sorry! Thanks for all the support everyone! :) Luv u all xxStephxx

Hayley is a normal girl, that is until one night theres a hammering at the door and she opens it to find Aelfric, and he is anything but a normal boy...
