When an envelope arrives with her name on it, everything changes.
She's been accepted into the prestigious Valemont Royal Academy, a school known for transforming students into society's elite.
But Valemont isn't just uniforms and courtly manners.
From the moment Audrey steps onto campus, she keeps crossing paths, literally, with a two boys who are strangely kind, fiercely protective, and inexplicably drawn to her.
They don't know each other well, yet something about their bond feels... unbreakable.
What Audrey doesn't know is that she's not alone in the world.
She's not even a Briggs.
She's Audrey Valestri and she has six brothers, two of whom live among her classmates, and four who operate in the shadows of power and crime.
When the past catches up and secrets unravel, Audrey is forced to choose between the life she's always known and the family she never knew she had.
