The Gilded Thread

Amelia Wren Carter was never meant to exist.
Twelve years ago, she was born from a single night between two of the most powerful families in the city-families built on wealth, influence, and dangerous secrets. Her biological mother already had four sons. Her biological father had five. A daughter from a night that should never have happened was a complication neither side wanted.
So Amelia was given away before anyone could ask questions.
Adopted into a loving family, Amelia grew up kind, gentle, and quietly sweet-far from the ruthless world she was born into.
But at twelve years old, her life takes an unexpected turn when her family moves to the very city that once erased her.
She doesn't know her past.
She doesn't know the boys who share her blood.
And her brothers don't know she exists.
But chance encounters have a strange way of pulling people together... and soon, the girl who was never supposed to exist finds herself slowly drifting into the orbit of nine powerful boys who have no idea she's their sister.
