Before Avery Grambs ever stepped foot in Hawthorne House, Lia May Stone knew its secrets.
She grew up in its shadow-the quiet daughter of Tobias Hawthorne's most trusted caretaker. While the world saw the Hawthorne boys as heirs, enigmas, and headlines, Lia knew them as her childhood companions. Rivals. Maybe even more.
Especially Grayson Hawthorne.
But when her mother died, the doors to the estate closed behind her, and the boys she once knew turned into memories laced with sharp edges. Lia disappeared-no goodbye, no forwarding address.
Now Tobias Hawthorne is dead. His will has shocked the world. And Lia is back.
Not for the fortune. Not for the fame.
For answers.
Because she too got an invitation to the will reading.
As she navigates the twisted riddles of Hawthorne House once more, old wounds resurface-and so does Grayson. He's colder now. Sharper. And just as captivating. But there are things Lia never told him. Truths buried in silence. Debts owed in blood.
And the past? It's not done with her yet.

She may remember Avery and Libby, but there are things- memories that don't add up. So now, the only thing she's focused on is finishing out her Senior year of high school, and planning a better future for her and Avery. But when she's forced to go to Texas for a will reading, everything she's worked for goes off the rails. When Evelyn is left one of Tobias Hawthorne's most prized foundations, she's forced to stay; while helping her sister who has just inherited billions. Nobody knows why the two girls were left all of Tobias things, but the heir apparent Grayson Hawthorne is out to get them: Her. The one who took what he's been waiting for his whole life from right under him. But as time passes, Evelyn can't help but look into the letter Tobias left her. This letter could be a link to her childhood- one last chance to so desperately remember what she can't, and once the truths are revealed- nothing will ever be the same.

Elizabeth Harlow was never just a visitor at Hawthorne House-she grew up inside it. Between ballet rehearsals, Saturday games, and secrets shared under staircases, she was part of the chaos, part of the family. Especially with Grayson Hawthorne-the boy who knew her best... and broke her heart anyway. Then came Emily Laughlin. One summer. One girl. One carefully played game that ended in betrayal-and death. Elizabeth walked away from it all. From the boys. From the house. From the life she thought she'd always belong to. But now Tobias Hawthorne is dead, and he's named Elizabeth in his will. She's being pulled back into a house built on puzzles and power, where every hallway whispers, and every smile hides something else. Grayson is distant. Jameson's hiding something. And the biggest question of all? Why her. Hawthorne House doesn't forget. And it doesn't forgive. The rules have changed. The stakes are higher. And this time, Elizabeth's not just a pawn-she might be the endgame. The inheritance games trilogy grayson hawthorne x female oc Updates every Friday!
