At seven years old, Edelen Lancaster's world changes in an instant. A simple trip to the mall with her brother turns into a nightmare when she gets lost in the crowd. But fate steps in when five boys-One Direction-find her frightened and alone. With nowhere else to turn, they take her in, raising her not as a fan, but as their little sister, giving her the safety, love, and family she's always needed.
Five years later, Edelen is twelve-and no longer the quiet little girl they rescued. With her ripped jeans, black eyeliner and nail polish, leather jackets, and a sharp streak of defiance, she's deep in her emo phase and ready to push every limit. Bedtimes? Ignored. Rules? Broken. Routines? Forgotten. She's determined to prove she's not a child anymore, no matter how tightly the boys hold on.
But while Edelen dreams of seeing the world they've kept her shielded from, the boys know the dangers waiting beyond their circle. As her hunger for independence collides with their fierce protectiveness, Edelen and her unlikely family must learn how to grow together-or risk growing apart.
A heartfelt story of found family, growing pains, and the unshakable bond between a girl and the five brothers who refuse to let her go.
Note this story will start off when she's young, and at some point, it will shift to when she's a bit older.
