*spin-off of The Only One and Together, We Rise*
Jeremy Cosgrove isn't like most teenagers. He's a genius, a musical prodigy, and an art prodigy. However, he also has selective mutism. For years, he has been home-schooled since he finds it hard to speak in crowds. But what happens when his mom can no longer home-school him?
Now, he's in public school with his siblings. It should be easy for some people if your twin goes to the same school, but not for Jeremy. His twin, Massey, would rather be popular than have her friends know that the new kid is her twin brother, not to mention the school's computer whiz is her younger brother, Tyler. For years, Jeremy thought his twin would have his back. Not this time.
If you think Luke Cosgrove and Melody Maynard's story was finished, there is still more. Meet their children: Jeremy, Massy, Tyler, Carter, Eric, and Zoey. We got the virtuoso, the athlete, the computer whiz, the swimmer, the prankster, and the adorable little girl who always wants a cupcake.
Sixteen years later, Quinn is a Junior in high school. She is going day to day learning each day that she has tasks to face. She learns that people will lie or use you to gain power. Manipulation is a big thing that she is influenced by, she also has a hard time asking for help with anything because she feels as if people will make fun of her, or people will make her think they are dumb questions to ask.
Her older brother Nico is running his own business, has a fiancé and he is also expecting his first child. He tries to keep in contact with his family as much as he can, but his time becomes short as meetings upon meetings pile on top of each other. At one point he doesn't contact them at all, which leaves Quinn to worry if he is okay or not.

She can't hold the secret in any longer as her bump will start to grow. Will he listen to what she has to say?
Will Quinn figure her problems and find a way to talk to Nico?
Will Nico talk to his family soon? Will he introduce Monica to them? Will he make the effort to even see them?
