When the unthinkable happens, nine-year-old Oakley Miller is thrust into a world no child should have to face alone. With her mum in a coma and a trail of buried secrets left behind, Oakley is sent to live with a father she's never met-and four half-brothers who feel more like strangers than family. But Oakley carries more than just a suitcase. She carries the weight of what happened. She carries the truth she's too scared to tell. And she carries a plan-one she wrote herself-to protect the only person who's ever loved her. To survive, Oakley must lie. To protect, she must pretend. To stay safe, she must not let anyone in. Not her new family. Not her social worker. Not even the quiet boy with glasses who sits beside her at lunch. But as more darkness begins to grow around her-and questions start to surface-Oakley begins to wonder: How long can she keep everything hidden? What happens when her story starts to unravel? She's only nine. And the truth? Might be the most dangerous thing of all. For the full story, go visit my Amazon page: https://www.amazon.com/author/gracesmith.author

Solienne (n.) - a name evoking sunlight after ruin; the quiet resilience of something lost, yet still burning. Isabella Moretti was kidnapped when she was three years old. She doesn't remember the brothers who loved her. And they don't know the girl she's become. Living under a new name in a quiet city, Isabella is a survivor-sharp-eyed, secretive, and always prepared to run. But when she transfers to a prestigious academy, two of the school's most feared students take notice: Antonio and Francesco Moretti. Cold, calculating, untouchable-until now. They don't know why they're drawn to her. Why she feels like something familiar. Why their guarded silence begins to crack around her laugh, her pain, her presence. They have no idea she's the sister they've mourned for years. And Isabella? She has no idea she's walking straight back into the family that never stopped searching. Solienne is a story of blood that remembers, even when memory doesn't-of lost things finding their way home, and love that endures even when the truth is buried in silence.
