13 parts Ongoing Winning the lottery doesn't fix you.
Charlotte Lewis knows that better than anyone. Thirty million dollars doesn't erase the trauma of growing up in the foster system, doesn't teach you how to belong, and definitely doesn't prepare you for what comes next.
Instead of spending her winnings on luxury and escape, she buys something unexpected-a run-down, forgotten house on the outskirts of Charleston, Virginia. A house big enough for the future she's too afraid to believe in. A house meant to become a safe haven for kids like her- kids who need a home, even if she isn't sure she knows how to give them one.
But walls don't build themselves, and neither do families. As Charlotte takes on the challenge of rebuilding, she's forced to confront the past she's spent years running from, the loneliness she refuses to name, and the people who refuse to let her do it alone-including Ryan Carter, her frustratingly charming neighbor, who seems determined to chip away at her carefully constructed walls.
She never planned on letting anyone in. But maybe home isn't something you build alone.
Maybe home is the people who stay.
