Kenzie Gilbert was the rebellious twin. She was desperate for attention, in hopes to standout from her goody-two-shoes twin sister's shadow. Until her parents died in a car crash. Kenzie hasn't spoken a word in months since. Then the Salvatore brothers move into town. Seventeen-year-old Stefan with a soft smile that makes her knees weak, innocent eyes like a grassy meadow shining under the sun, and a heart of gold. And the older brother, Damon with a sensually seductive smirk and diamond blue eyes like the ocean as the waves crash at the shore, and his surprising knight and shining armor acts. However, the cycle seems to continue as twin, Elena catches their attention too. But danger and darkness follow the Salvatores, which would make any girl melt under the pressure. Are both twins up for the challenge? Or will the unsaid competition make them as estranged as the brothers? Speaking of competition, both Salvatores worm their way into Kenzie's good graces. Which one will make Kenzie Gilbert break her oath of silence, and allow her to find a new definition for herself as someone besides the mute twin? ~BOOK 1 OF 8~

Have you ever heard the saying I love you so much it hurts? I always thought that it was just that, a saying, to emphasize how you feel for someone. It wasn't till I met the love of my life, Niklaus Mikaelson, that that so call saying slapped me right between the eyes. To feel that much passion towards a person not only results in happiness, it also brings pain. Extreme pain. The type of pain that cripples you and no matter how hard or far you run from it, it never leaves. But despite this, I stayed with him for the better part of 500 years. Because in my mind, the happy times outweighed all that torture. I could have everything I ever wanted. He, Elijah, Rebekah, Kol, Finn, and I were a family. But over the years, my family's love for each other slowly soured and turned to hate, and suddenly the happy times weren't worth the agony. So I left, I ran, and I never stopped. But what will happen when I get thrown back into the Mikaelson world, trying to save Elena from Klaus's cruelty? Will love conquer all, or will I find comfort in the arms of another? Will we become a family like we once were, or has 500 years apart done its damage? Find out in Forever Family.
