Some people save you without even realizing it. Veronica's life exists in the space between slammed doors, empty promises, and nights spent hiding from the chaos waiting inside her apartment. She never expected comfort to come from the boy across the hall. Avery "Ave" Adams has spent years holding his life together with duct tape and determination. Between raising his little sister, working dangerous jobs, and carrying responsibilities that were never supposed to be his, he doesn't have room for anyone else. Then Veronica happens. What starts as late-night conversations in apartment hallways becomes something neither of them saw coming-a lifeline. But when you've spent your entire life surviving, learning how to be loved might be the hardest thing of all.

Alessandra has never believed in safety. Life never gave her a reason to. Pain carved her childhood, silence became her armor, and trust? That was a luxury she could never afford. So when she runs -- bloody, broken, and barely breathing, she doesn't expect saving. She certainly doesn't expect to be taken in by a family dripping in wealth and power and. . . warmth? A mother who refuses to give up on her. A father who watches like he's waiting for her to let him in. And six brothers. Rough. Protective. Complicated. Brothers, who don't know what to do with a sister who won't speak. She doesn't know how to trust. How to believe that maybe not everyone wants to hurt her. Every instinct tells her to run. To shut down. But they don't let her go. Not when she flinches. Not when she hides. Not even when she breaks. Happiness is for other people, or that's what she believes. But when love comes wrapped in gentle patience and fierce protection, when hands reach for her without demand, when hearts break themselves wide open just to hold her... she starts to wonder. Can a girl stitched together with silence and fear ever belong in a family built on love? Can she stand tall when the ghosts of her past refuse to let go? And when danger claws its way back into her life, threatening everything she's come to know... will she find her voice, or will she shatter all over again? Trigger Warnings: Child abuse. Violence. Addiction. Panic attacks. SA. Self-harm. Death, and more.
