Eleanor Whitmore came to Small Heath to escape the war-the memories, the screams, the blood she couldn't wash from her hands. She wanted quiet. She wanted to disappear. But then she caught the attention of the Shelby brothers. Thomas Shelby-calculated, cold, untouchable-found himself softening in ways he never thought possible. And John Shelby-the charming, reckless one-couldn't understand why the girl felt so familiar, or why he couldn't stay away. Two brothers. One woman. And as their lives began to unravel, Eleanor realized too late the chaos her presence had brought. She never meant to come between them. So she ran.
