Whitlocksheep Stories

She was never supposed to stand out... but she's about to become impossible to ignore. Esmeralda Walson has spent her entire life trying to survive inside the cold, glittering mansion she calls home - a house filled with secrets, shadows, and sharp smiles. Her mother controls with perfection. Her sister shines under a spotlight that Esme was never meant to step into. And Esme? She's the quiet one, the problem, the disappointment in white. When a high-stakes business dinner turns into an unexpected engagement announcement, Esme finds herself face-to-face with Ezra - her sister's new fiancé... and the stranger whose eyes haven't left hers since the moment she walked down the stairs. Caught between duty and defiance, Esme suddenly finds herself spiraling into a world of hidden tension, whispered truths, and slow-burning connections she never asked for. But nothing is simple in a family built on image, power, and betrayal. Especially not when Alejandro - Ezra's sharp-tongued, unexpected cousin - starts to take an interest too. With her heart at war, her past closing in, and the pressure to remain silent threatening to crush her, Esme must choose: stay invisible... or finally fight for the life she's always been told she doesn't deserve.
