Just like Avery Grambs, Malacey Prairie was a complete stranger to the Hawthorne family when she inherited just as much money as she could ever wish for.
"Thankfully, it wasn't so hard to find you, Miss Prairie," the boy in the black tuxedo, the colour bringing out the silver in his eyes. "It wasn't as easy to find the other... girl."
"Mr Hawthorne, I advise that you control your sarcasm and choose your words correctly," I retorted, just as much sass lacing my tone just as much as his.
His ice silver eyes met mine as he walked over to the desk where I stood.
"Maybe you should too, Miss Prairie," he said as he reached me and the small of my back hit the desk as a curious light flickered in his eyes,
"Malacey, Grayson," I sneered at him with a smirk. "We aren't total strangers, are we, Gray?"
Suddenly, the boy stepped away from me, all light gone from his eyes.
"I-I'll be waiting outside, Miss Prairie," he stuttered as he left the room.
Funny. Grayson Davenport Hawthorne never stuttered.
But was she really a complete stranger from the family, or was she just a stranger to one?

Lizzie Laughlin liked to consider herself the odd one out of her sisters. She was never like Emily or Rebecca, but she still tried hard to be like them.. more so Emily. And when tragedy struck, she still blamed herself partly for what happened to her older sister, even now. There was always one thing that didn't change, and that was Jameson Hawthorne.
Jameson was her best-friend- her person. And despite a few stolen kisses throughout the years, she has always longed for someone she could never have. It was always Emily, so she let him go. Until the moment she almost had him, tragedy struck, and Liz's heart closed for good.
Except, when a mystery girl inherits all of Tobias Hawthorne's fortune, she couldn't help but let her heart be sucked back into all things Hawthorne- including Jameson. It's only when she realizes that her favorite Hawthorne will never be with her, and instead the mystery heiress that her heart crumbles that much more.
