Annalise is happy. She might not be the coolest, the prettiest, or the most fashionable, but as of now, her life is perfect.
She has two best friends (both of whom are way, way, way cooler than her), and a perfect boyfriend who cares about her and loves her. Aidan is the kind of person everyone admires, and he was hers.
Every day is perfectly planned and carried out, just as Aidan likes, and Annalise is happy.
Rhys Christensen destroys everything. He destroys the perfect plan, he destroys the pattern in Annalise's routines, and shatters pretty much all of her beliefs regarding love. But Annalise doesn't mind.
She unknowingly likes the unpredictable events, and Rhys's carefree behavior. She thought she was happy then, but she realizes that she was wrong. Then was nothing compared to now.
But Aidan decides to change and asks for another chance.
Annalise is torn. Will she choose the boy who's taken care of her all her life, or the boy who taught her how to be genuinely happy?
After enduring years of neglect and cruelty from her mother and stepfather, Ariana's life changes drastically when tragedy brings her under the guardianship of five brothers she's never met and they never even knew they had a sister.
For her brothers, learning they have a sister is an unwelcome surprise. Suspicious and reluctant, her brothers see Aria as an outsider, a stranger disrupting the fragile balance of their lives.
For Aria, their home is both a new beginning and a constant reminder of the family that left her behind.
Haunted by the pain of her past, Aria struggles to adjust, her every action guarded and her trust hard to earn.
As her brothers try to understand her, they begin to glimpse the scars she hides and the strength she carries. Little by little, resentment turns to empathy, and the walls between them start to crumble. But just as the siblings begin to find common ground, the secrets and trauma of Aria's old life threaten to tear them apart. Together, they must decide whether they can overcome the shadows of the past to forge a family and whether Aria can finally find a place to belong.
