Worthy of More - Book One
20 parts Complete In a world where Meredith Grey is born a genius with an IQ of 187 and an eidetic memory, brilliance becomes her curse. As the fraternal twin to the beloved Elizabeth Grey, Meredith grows up emotionally neglected and verbally abused by their parents, Ellis and Thatcher Grey, resented not for her flaws, but for her extraordinary mind.
Isolated, withdrawn, and starved of affection, Meredith finds comfort in books and medicine, fast-tracking her education to become triple board-certified in Neurosurgery, General Surgery, and Fetal Surgery. She avoids Seattle-and her family-until a twist of fate brings her home.
Meanwhile, in New York, Addison Montgomery is trapped in a crumbling marriage with Derek Shepherd, who continues to cheat while asking for second chances. When Richard Webber offers Addison and Derek new leadership roles at Seattle Grace, Addison agrees, thinking a change of scenery might save her marriage.
But it's not Derek she ends up gravitating toward.
It's Meredith.
