Blue always thought she understood her life: a quiet girl in the shadow of a superstar, Taylor Swift's little sister, the fragile one, always sick, always protected. But protection comes with limits. And love - real love - carries secrets. As Blue grows older, her illness worsens, her world shifts, and the pieces of her past stop fitting together. Little things don't match. Stories don't align. Some truths feel too carefully rehearsed. Hidden inside the heart of her own family lies a truth she was never supposed to question - a truth powerful enough to break her or finally set her free. A story about identity, love, and the kind of bond strong enough to survive sixteen years of silence.

Sometimes it feels like I'm black and white, and everyone else is in color. Other times it feels like I'm in color and everyone else is in black and white, and everyone is watching my every move, judging me, and trying to decide if I'm just asking for attention. The truth is, I would do just about anything that I could to get that attention to go away. I have Ehlers Danlos Syndrome, and being the only kid in my class with chronic pain is not easy. I have to fight to do everything that most people can do easily and no one realizes it. Instead, when I can't do something, people assume I'm exaggerating and I could do it if I just tried. So I want to share my story for anybody who is going through what I am.
