Ella Payne is sixteen now. She's still Niall's little princess, and still Liam and Meg's little sister. She's really everyone's little sister. It really can't get any better. Meg and Louis finally got to settle down together. They think it's all over. Daddy and Mummy are gone. No more troubles. It's much farther than that. When they shoved everything behind them into the doors and locked it with a key, there was one door they forgot about. Once a new neighbor unexpectedly moves in, they've only realized they've gotten much deeper into the water, much closer to danger. Relationships will be tested, tears will be shed, and if anything, there will be blood.

*WARNING: Written in 2008, some content may be offensive* Stasee is your typical shy, quiet teenage girl until the night her brother's best friend Damen Hurtz decides to finally acknowledge her existence. In a desperate attempt to gain his acceptance she allows him to take the one thing every girl values most...her virginity. After that night, Damen constantly begins accepting her while they're alone and then rejecting her in front of his peers. Stasee's frustration and confusion continues to grow, as do her feeling toward the man who continues to break her heart. He claims that he cares for her, but will his need for his peer's acceptance prevent him from ever treating Stasee the way he should? And if he finally realizes the stupidity of popularity over love, will Stasee still be waiting for him?

It all changed when I met a tall dark stranger. One who liked his pleasure with a side of dominance, which worked only because I like my pleasure with a side of pain. And when it turned out this tall dark stranger was the brother of my Dom, everything seemed to fall apart before it fell back together. But I found that I loved being around them, the two guys made me feel strong, strong enough to handle the feelings they made me feel. And I can only hope they are sensitive enough to my feelings to realize I would do anything for them. *Finished, but Editing* Check out the sequel 'It Runs In The Family'
