Luckily, she wasn't on a higher floor or she wouldn't have slipped out as quickly as she did. She landed heavily on the path below and shot a panicked glance up on impact. "You stupid girl!" a voice shouted from the window as she staggered to her feet, crying out in pain as her wound flared up at the sudden jolt. "We're coming for you! You can't protect them forever!" Dread filled her bones, but all she did was run, not yet knowing what she'd gotten herself into. . . . Kaely Monsford was a quiet girl, out of school and working a job at a cafe in Australia. Being an orphan, life was bound to be hard, but she made it work. She kept surviving. Until one afternoon, when four seemingly regular guys pranced into her life like they were sent right to her. They were quiet, nervous and extremely suspicious. Of course, Kaely didn't think anything of it until she got ambushed on her way home from work that same night. All of a sudden, Kaely found herself thrust into a life on the run from everyone around her; man, woman and child. Her face became something to be recognized and her new companions didn't help with her problem. So, what's Kaely up to now? And why is she on the run?

Echo wasn't like her sisters. She knew that when people talked about the famous and fabulous Reid sisters, they weren't referring to her. Quiet, homely, plain and riddled with social anxiety that made it hard for her to leave the house, she could never have known what was about to happen, she never dreamed she'd live such an adventure. Luke Farina was the most dangerous man around- spoiled, selfish, extremely conceited- he didn't take no for an answer and always got what he wanted. He just never expected that the strange and ridiculous little Echo would be the one to say no and somehow become the one he had to have most. -- NOTE: Hi everyone! I really hope you take the time to read this story. It's already complete for the most part, in just taking it slow in publishing it. It's my first story and I'd love to hear your comments and feedback. I hope you decide to give it a chance! This is also part one of a series and I'm already midway through the next book which can't be released unless this one gets some positive feedback. Thank you and enjoy!
