Staying in one place was never mums thing. Talking about feeling was a no. Causing trouble, attention seeking, being a brat also a no. But you could! Cry your heart out silently as long as it wasn't loud as long as it wasn't embarrassing or tainting our reputation. So I did just that. Till I lost myself, till I couldn't figure out what was going on with me. "Oh yea you brother is coming home" mum said the minute I placed the first plate on the table. I nearly dropped the next one "What? Brother!?" "Honey don't do this now you know your brother that went to juvi years ago for killing those five men" Of course I remembered I had been bullied by the victims younger sister, course I remembered because it was the reason we moved even though I didn't even remember my elder brothers face I had been four when he got locked up. He was coming home??? .................................................................................................... 17 year old Addison Russo has been living her life a rollercoaster to many downhills which she's screamed her lungs off through with not enough uphills to let her catch her breath.

Elijah is a young boy that has been born and raised in a neglectful and abusive household. With his biological mother, Eliza, and his stepfather Paw.

After much investigation and waiting at the police station, the officers were able to find and contact a relative of Elijah's -his bother! one of them. He's forced to move in with the four of them, and despite all of his worries and overwhelming fears, deep down he's a little happy to know that he has a family and a place to go back to. The brothers are mysterious and intimidating, some more than others. Will Elijah be welcomed into this new family with open arms? Will he be able to warm up to them and open up about his past? xoxo💋

Twelve-year-old Sydney has always looked up to her older brothers. Mason, seventeen, is the steady one-the quiet backbone of the family who seems like he already knows how to be an adult. Banks, fourteen, is the storm. Loud, unpredictable, always in trouble at school and at home. And Sydney loves them both in completely different ways. But lately, something about Banks doesn't add up. His anger feels sharper. His excuses don't quite make sense. And the more the family tries to correct his behavior, the worse everything becomes. Teachers complain. Parents argue late into the night. Mason tries to hold everything together while Sydney quietly watches it all unravel, still believing her big brother is just... misunderstood. Then Sydney discovers the truth Banks has been hiding for years-he can't read. What follows is a fragile, painful reckoning. The family is forced to confront not only Banks' secret, but everything they missed, ignored, or misunderstood along the way. Shame and fear collide with love and loyalty, and suddenly nothing feels simple anymore-not what Banks did, not why he did it, and not how to fix what's been broken for so long. Sydney finds herself caught in the middle, determined to protect the brother she adores while the family fractures under the weight of a truth they never saw coming. And just when they begin to find a way forward, an accident changes everything-reshaping their lives in a way none of them are prepared for, and forcing them to decide what family really means when everything falls apart. A heartbreaking story about hidden struggles, misunderstood behavior, and the kind of love that has to survive the truth.

Riley doesn't remember the last time someone asked if she was okay. Not really asked. Not in the way that meant they were going to stay for the answer. She is seventeen years old and she has already learned the most important lesson this town has to offer - that people leave. They leave with promises folded neatly in their pockets, with good intentions they fully mean at the time, with duffel bags and bus tickets and fifteen days that turn into three years without a single word. They leave, and the ones left behind learn to stop waiting by the window. They learn to stop setting an extra plate. They learn to breathe around the absence until the absence just becomes the air. Riley works the late shift. She carries drinks to tables without being asked twice. She doesn't flinch at loud voices anymore. She doesn't cry at things that used to make her cry. She has become very good at being invisible in a room full of people - and even better at being invisible to herself. This is not the life she imagined. But it is the life she has. And she has made her peace with it, quietly, the way you make peace with things you never had a choice about. She is not waiting for anyone anymore. She stopped doing that a long time ago. Until the night a familiar face walks through the door - and three brothers who left her behind must now face what their absence built. Because blood doesn't forget. And neither does Riley.
