"A voice, not an echo." At the Echo Awards, we want the emotional, the raw, the moving. We want everything you're afraid to share. We want the truest things you know how to say.

Peyton Montgomery is blessed -or cursed; depending on how you view it- with seven older brothers. Well, technically she is two minutes older than her twin, Sebastian. All of her brothers are extremely protective of their baby sister, to the point where she can't even look her first kiss in the eye any more! Needless to say, Peyton is struggling to find a guy to stick around long enough to date. Stupidly, she finds herself drawn to none other than her brother's best friend. This cannot end well. Especially considering that her new interest, Elijah Antonelli, is known around town as 'bad news', her brothers will simply not allow her to date the local bad boy. Things are about to get really interesting...
