"I wanted you guys to still view me as your strong, tough sister. Someone who let's nothing scare her. But I am not that girl anymore. I am weak and scared."
....
Emily's parents divorced when she was 13. Her mother took custody of her and her father took custody of her brothers, although her father wanted custody of all of them.

Her mother took her across the country to get her away from her father and brothers. There she abused Emily and let her many boyfriends do unspeakable things to her. 

Three years later, Emily's father got a call. Emily is in the hospital. He rushes across the country without telling Emily's brothers where he is going. When he gets there he sees something that breaks his heart.

Emily is humiliated. Nobody has seen her as vulnerable as she is that moment and she makes a promise to herself that nobody will ever see her like that again.

Will she be able to keep that promise?

Or will she crack?

Will her father and brothers be able to help her through this?
