The Quinns have always known how to show up.
James and Caroline built their family that way-six children, one loud house, Sunday mornings, too much food, relentless teasing, and the certainty that when life gets hard, nobody faces it alone.
For seventeen-year-old Sierra Quinn, being the youngest has always meant being loved by an entire army.
It has also meant being protected by one.
Now graduation is approaching. Her eighteenth birthday is weeks away. She has a girlfriend she cares about, a best friend who knows her better than almost anyone, five older brothers who still haven't quite realized their baby sister grew up, and a future beginning to take shape beyond the walls of the only home she's ever known.
And then there's Eddie DΓaz.
Her brother Ryan's best friend. A permanent fixture in the Quinn family's orbit. The boy Sierra met when she was twelve and has spent years trying not to love in all the ways she shouldn't.
Eddie has spent those same years knowing exactly where the lines are-and refusing to cross them.
But growing up has a way of moving lines no one thought would ever change.
Between birthdays and breakups, graduation and Sunday breakfasts, old family traditions and one long summer at the lake house, the Quinns begin discovering that loving someone through childhood isn't the same as knowing how to love the adult they become.
Sierra has spent most of her life quietly noticing what everyone else needs.
This time, she has to decide what she wants.
And the people who love her will have to learn that sometimes showing up means holding on.
Sometimes it means letting go.
And sometimes, it means trusting that growing apart isn't the same thing as losing each other.
TOGETHER is the first book in a five-book contemporary family saga about growing up, falling in love, building families of every shape, and the people who keep choosing one another through all of it.
