After 10 years of Giselle Opten witnessing mother's death, she still blames her abusive, alcoholic, cheating father and his mistress (named) Kay, for everything. Therefore, Giselle takes it upon herself to make Kay feel the same grief that she did at the age of 7 and that she has to feel for the rest of her life. Once Giselle brings revenge to Kay, she takes off starting her new life where no one will know her past, in fear that she will get caught and locked away in jail- or even an asylum. She knows she isn't crazy. She didn't do it because she is crazy. She did it because Kay deserves to know how it feels to miss the one you love most for the rest of your life because of another person. Once Giselle commits the crime and flees; finally being free from her dad's abuse, she promises to herself, that she'll Never Look Back. "I won't. I just won't!" She cries out. "I'm never looking back!"

Ever since her oldest brothers revealed some of the truth about their family's past, the 12-year-old soon-to-be-teenager is struggling to come to terms with all the new and partially heart-breaking information. For the first few months of the year, Lily has tried to stay true to her word and not dig any further into their past, at least not until Alex, her guardian, is willing to share more details with the younger kids. However, Lily's patience is slowly running out. So many things are occupying her mind. She is convinced that there is still a lot more to discover about her family, and she is not willing to wait much longer. What is their father's story and can she locate him? How did her sister die? When will she see Finn again? Why is Sean really moving back home? And what is the reason behind her brothers' weirdly secretive behavior? With the help from her friends and some of her siblings, Lily continues her journey of gradually unravelling her family's secrets. Will she be successful? Will the implications of her discoveries slowly dissolve her family or is she able to save these fragile relationships before it is too late? Join Lily once again as she juggles school, friends, family (meetings), the general challenges of growing-up, creepy stalkers, some tragedies and maybe even her first encounter with something akin to a crush in these rather eventful months of her life.
