The Lady of the Rose is a long-foretold, and greatly mysterious status, possessing unknown abilities, and it is said that she will be surrounded by four guards of vastly different backgrounds. Brynna Ann Redrius's mother is engaged to someone who's worse than the lowliest used car salesman in the nicest of terms. She doesn't fit in anywhere, even in the loner crowd. She hates everyone around her. When four boys--a quiet one who doesn't share his thoughts with the world unless he deems it needed, a sarcastic one who seems to get a thrill from causing others pain and discomfort, a kind and polite one who always seems to know more than he should, and a hyper one who never seems to let anything effect his outwardly chipper mood--suddenly appear around her, each with many secrets, her life begins to go downhill, as if it wasn't on it's way to begin with.
