39 parts Complete A story of five boys, four families and one home that feels like always.
Three older brothers. Two younger ones.
Five boys who grow up under the same roof.
They're raised as brothers and that's exactly what they are.
Kian, the eldest, is always just a little taller, a little steadier.
Ezra comes next-bold, loud and never far behind.
Nico, somewhere in the middle, is calm like the eye of the storm.
Then come the youngest two.
Ryan-or Ray-is born first. Curious, sharp, already claiming every brother as his own.
And just two months later, little Elijah, or Eli, arrives. Ray isn't thrilled at first.
From Ray's quiet confusion when his "youngest" crown is taken, to the moment he hears Eli say his first word before he ever spoke his own. From tantrums over sharing "their" brothers, to creating a secret world of just two, Ray and Eli grow up tangled in each other's lives like roots from the same tree.
This book follows the youngest two as they grow-through snack wars and sleepy cuddles, secret codes and chaos.
Surrounded by three very protective older brothers and four very chaotic (and loving) families, they learn what it means to be home-even when everything else is growing and changing around them.
They make a promise.
To be there. To protect. To stay.
Together Forever, Whatever It Takes.
