Katie Hyland is pretty normal girl with three best friends who she trusts endlessly and not really healthy obsession with books and fairytailes. Unfortunately, her family is far from normal. And no, they aren't vampires or werewolfs or anything supernatural. That would be nice, though. No, her family is, to put it nicely, "perfect". With the air quotes. Her older sister Emily Hyland is your tipical head cheerleader and class president with a lot of friends and a perfect body. Her boyfriend is school's own playboy Tyler Worthingon, who just happens to be only person Katie wouldn't cry for if he got hit by a train, and she has a part time modeling job. Katie wouldn't mind anything of it, if her sister isn't such a witch. Katie's younger sister, Kimmy Hyland, is one of those girls that everyone loves even though she is diffrent from everybody else. Being school's football team captain, Nick Hyland has a great future in sports in front of him. So has his twin, Lucas Hyland, who is soccer team captain. But, both Lucas and Nick never showed that they care about Katie in any way. Hell, they make her life even worse than it is. Madeline and Mathea Hyland are the youngest girls in the family. While Mathea is an extremely good ballerina, Madeline is a girl with an unearthly voice. With Katie's parents being a famous Hollywood actress and a respected businessman, and with her siblings being so "perfect", she is always in a shadow. Everything changed when a famous model Logan Hunter came to live with them for a few months. With his perfect looks and a great personality, everyone fell in love with him immediately. He showed Katie that she doesn't have to be in the shadow of her siblings. His arrival brought up some deep-buried secrets that nobody wanted to relive. He changed every single one of them. Even Katie. But, not exactly how she suspected. WARNING: I'm going to edit this story when I finish it so...if you see any mistakes please do tell.
