Jackson Baker has a lot to handle being the eldest of thirteen kids. Especially now that he is raising them all on his own.
Every day is a new battle in the Bakers' house. Whether it be getting the youngest triplets to get their shoes on, or trying to do the school run to two schools all while trying to catch the train to avoid being late to his own. Which he always is.
And trying not to let on that there isn't a responsible adult in the house taking care of them to Social Services. Everything is going just peachy. Not.
Sometimes, being the first child sucks.

The Four Brothers ~ Completed
Gemma isn't what you would call normal. With a genius IQ, a not so great home life, and a hard time staying in tight spaces, the girl's got a few issues.

But not everything is as it appears with our lovely little Gemma; same with her new brothers. Nothing is as it appears, it seems. With a past worse than expected at first glance, literal demons that can bite them in the ass, and a couple of plain grouchy Starbucks attendants, this will be one crazy ride. But will this ride destroy the family or bring it back together? Don't look at me, I don't know. You'll have to read to figure that out.

He's smirking down at me as he says, "Um, you're in my seat." I laugh and say, "You realize that is the most cliche thing you could possibly say?" He looks confused so I elaborate. "It's the first day of school and you're coming up the new girl, claiming I'm in your seat. Sorry, but it's not very original." He huffs and rolls his eyes. "Get out of my seat, sunshine." "Watch it happen, pretty boy." I reply, smirking as I stuff my other earbud back in. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Madeline Lace is the youngest of six, the older five being all brothers.
