After being separated from her caring grandfather, she was forced to live with her neglectful mother and her mother's drug-dealing boyfriend. When her mother becomes pregnant again, Ellie bravely steps in to protect her unborn brother, Tate. Overwhelmed and desperate, her mother ultimately abandons Ellie, leaving her to raise Tate on her own at just 14.

Eight years later, Ellie's world is shaken again when a lawyer attempts to reach Ellie's estranged father, the call is mistakenly directed to Vince Hawkings Jr.,  her brother. Her Brother is stunned to discover he has a sister and his fathers betrayal.

[COMPLETED] Have you ever seen Disney's Tangled? If you have, do you know about how Repunzel isn't supposed to leave the tower because her 'mother' said that the world is a cruel place? Well, the same thing happened to Ellie. Just, she doesn't live in a tower or has freakishly long hair. She always looked out of the window to catch a small glimpse of the outside world. She never saw much except for the tips of grass in front of her and the grey, almost black, road that lay in between two houses. Oh! And her mother and father are not nice like in the movie. They treated her like a slave in the house and... Did I mention her room was actually the basement? If I didn't, now you know. Enter Aidan Walker. Ellie's twin brother. Aidan's life is opposite to Ellie's. He has everything severed to him in a golden plater. His every wish is fulfilled and is quite popular when it comes to media. To this day the media follows him around. Despite all the attention and everything being the way he wants, he still feels like something important is missing. He was raised in a well-doing family that took care of him like he was their own. He's well behaved. Both of them don't know about each other. Both of them find out on the same day. After finding out that he has a twin sister still alive and living, Aidan wasted no time in reaching out to her. After that, let's just say the first meeting isn't exactly how Aidan planned it to be. ❗BEFORE YOU READ❗ This book is yet to be edited.

Xavier Knight Xavier Knight isn't just a name-it's a legacy carved in both the opulence of modern luxury and the shadows of a tumultuous past. With a calculated brilliance that commands respect, Xavier has built an empire on relentless ambition and unyielding resolve. His presence is magnetic: from the impeccably tailored suits that accentuate his athletic frame to the piercing gaze that seems to see right through every facade. At first glance, Xavier embodies the epitome of wealth and power. His world is defined by towering skyscrapers, exclusive gatherings, and a penthouse that overlooks a city pulsing with life. Every element of his lifestyle is meticulously curated-each piece of art, every vintage wine, all whispers of a man who doesn't just live in luxury, but defines it. In the boardroom, Xavier is a force to be reckoned with-a strategist whose decisions can make or break empires. His mind operates like a finely tuned machine, weighing risks and rewards with the precision of a master chess player. Yet, beneath this ruthless exterior lies a soul fueled by passion, a blend of intensity and hidden vulnerability that few ever glimpse. Ava Kingsley Some people are born to change the world with power and dominance. Ava Kingsley changes it with nothing but the quiet force of her goodness. She doesn't demand attention, nor does she seeks the spotlight. Ava is the embodiment of purity, not in naivety, but in the way she sees the world-with an open heart, boundless empathy, and an unwavering belief in love. She has a soul untouched by bitterness, a heart untainted by cruelty. Their marriage is a collision of two opposing worlds. He is dominance; she is defiance. He is fire; she is the soft rain meant to soothe it. Yet, the more she tries to resist him, the more he is drawn to her-her warmth, her kindness, the way she looks at him like he isn't the monster the world believes him to be. Will they fall in love or will they break the starlight?

The world has chewed up and spit out Eleanor Robinson again and again. It began with her parents, one taken by a tragedy, one addicted to horrific drugs, and a brother who's too boozed out to know if she's alive or dead. Alone in the world, Ellie isn't exactly sure of how life works, of how anything works, really. The only two people she has that even remotely understand are Sebastian and Scarlett, a pair of siblings that remind her so much of her own family, it's hard to be around them sometimes. When the trio finally move in together after being friends for almost three years, they end up closer than ever. But the move brings along another problem into Ellie's life. Cole Everett is a fighter. From the moment he was cast aside by his family, he's had to fight for scraps at the orphanage dinner table, fight for a spot in the light of his foster family's eyes, and fight for the love of his adoptive parents. It seemed like he never won when it came to personal battles, but in the ring... In the ring, he owned the world. Years and years of the world kicking Cole's ass has shaped him into the fighter Ellie and everyone else sees him as. But the world has also shaped Ellie, and the sweet, heavy-hearted girl paints on a façade that seems only Cole can break through. As the pair attempt to navigate a decent enough relationship to be in the same room as one another without going for the throat, the people around them float between blurred lines of friend or foe. Hearts clash, past enemies arise, and the pair's hearts hang in the balance of it all.
