❝My sister, Ian? My fucking sister? I'll kill you.❞ In the gritty heart of the South Side, Dysfunctional tells the story of Ian Gallagher and Aria Milkovich-Mickey's fierce, sharp-tongued little sister. A girl who's spent her whole life punching her way through a neighborhood that never gave her an inch, been circling the Gallagher chaos for years, hiding her feelings for Ian behind jokes, jabs, and a little too much whiskey. But everything changes the night Ian kisses her on a dare-and neither of them laughs. With Ian freshly out and trying to figure out what being bi means in a world that wants boxes, and Aria wrestling with loyalty, love, and what it means to want someone your brother might kill, their connection burns hot and complicated. The Gallaghers know the Milkoviches are bad news. The Milkoviches know the Gallaghers are soft. But Ian and Aria? They know there's something real between them-and it might just be worth the fallout.
