A Softer Kind Of Dangerous

She was always the softer twin-the one who chose loyalty over love and sacrifice over selfishness.

As Elena Gilbert's twin sister, Eloise Gilbert has always been the quiet heart of the group-gentle, brave, and always putting others first. But unlike Elena, Eloise carries a fate of her own as the doppelgänger of Katherine Pierce's forgotten twin sister, tying her to a dangerous supernatural history.

Closest to Caroline and endlessly loyal to Bonnie, Eloise hides one secret she can never confess: her love for Stefan Salvatore, the boy who chose her sister.

Determined to protect Elena's happiness, she buries her feelings and settles for friendship-until everything changes. When both Gilbert sisters are turned into vampires, Elena finds herself drawn to Damon, while Stefan begins to realize the person who truly understood him may have been Eloise all along.

Caught between destiny, heartbreak, and the burden of always being the strong one, Eloise must learn that sometimes bravery isn't sacrificing yourself for the people you love-

it's allowing yourself to be loved back.
