Clover Marianne Emerson has always been a quiet storm, hiding her fears behind soft smiles and her scars beneath impossible expectations. When tragedy uproots her life, she is thrust into the chaos of her brothers' world-a place of loud voices, sharp edges, and a love she doesn't know how to accept. They are strangers bound by blood, each with their own cracks and shadows. Clover tries to fit herself into their lives, perfect and invisible, but perfection is a fragile thing. As the walls between them start to crumble, so does the mask she's always worn. Follow Clove as she learns to navigate teenage life, sibling rivalry, and her own dreams and as she begins to discover that perfection isn't what binds a family together-it's love, chaos, and everything in between.

The only problem is that Ace Chambers - her brother - is one of the most feared and dangerous men in the city. Ace is rarely home from work and when he is he doesn't say much nor engage in her life. His sister, however, is the opposite - Jodee is a shy and reserved 14-year-old-girl; always wanting to be out of the spotlight that her brother's mysterious life puts on her. She gets good grades, has a small friend group, and is content with her own company. Although the Chambers siblings are polar opposites they are very close. Jodee understands Ace like no other and Ace always has Jodee and her best interest at the top of his priorities. So what happens when her quiet - but different - life is turned up-side-down? Will Ace be able to protect her and save her innocence? Can Jodee handle this change? And most of all, will their little family stick together.
