I gasped as I dropped the phone. No, no, no, NO! Not me, it can't be. I've done nothing wrong, right? Right. I think.
Tears welded in my eyes, as I stared at my phone on the floor. Faintly I can hear the guy on the other side of the call, "Miss? Miss? You still there? I swear everything will be fine, I just need you to respond. I promise, it's going to be alright." With that last sentence I broke down in tears.

After enduring years of neglect and cruelty from her mother and stepfather, Ariana's life changes drastically when tragedy brings her under the guardianship of five brothers she's never met and they never even knew they had a sister.
For her brothers, learning they have a sister is an unwelcome surprise. Suspicious and reluctant, her brothers see Aria as an outsider, a stranger disrupting the fragile balance of their lives.
For Aria, their home is both a new beginning and a constant reminder of the family that left her behind.
Haunted by the pain of her past, Aria struggles to adjust, her every action guarded and her trust hard to earn.
As her brothers try to understand her, they begin to glimpse the scars she hides and the strength she carries. Little by little, resentment turns to empathy, and the walls between them start to crumble. But just as the siblings begin to find common ground, the secrets and trauma of Aria's old life threaten to tear them apart. Together, they must decide whether they can overcome the shadows of the past to forge a family and whether Aria can finally find a place to belong.
