At 22, Eleanor Ellington-known as Ellie-has faced more than her share of adversity. 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. He enlists his best friend, Xavier Griffin, a former military operative turned security expert, to investigate his newfound sister.

Xavier's deep dive into Ellie's past reveals her challenging upbringing and current struggles, including her devotion to her son, Tate. Admiring Ellie's resilience and integrity, Xavier can't stay away, even knowing it might jeopardize a lifelong friendship. 

The Hawking family tries to get to know Ellie but, she remains guarded, wary of the sudden influx of family and the possible consequences for her and Tate. 

In a story of redemption, love, and fierce familial loyalty, Ellie must confront her past and embrace the new family that has come to her aid, learning that sometimes accepting help and love is the hardest, yet most rewarding, thing of all.

[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. There are a lot of things that don't make sense or don't go well together. And there are a lot of grammar and spelling mistakes. Read at your own risk.
