Synopsis

"
""A moving and compelling tale exploring the heartbreak one impulsive lie can cause, breaking apart a family. Deft and confident, this book has it all: emotive and gripping in equal measure. Had to stop myself gulping it down in one go!"" Louise Mumford
An accident and a terrible lie by sixteen-year-old Angie tears her family apart and her younger sister, Lisa, being sent away. They don't speak for thirteen years, until their mother's death brings them together. Lisa quickly realises her sister is trapped in a dangerous marriage.
What does Lisa owe to the family that betrayed her? And if she tries to help, will she make things more dangerous for them all?
A powerful story of domestic violence, courage and forgiveness.
"Emotional, thought-provoking and highly recommended." Jan Baynham
"A masterclass in blending family dynamic - grief, empathy and blame mix into a glorious emotional canvas." Phil Rowlands

    Amelia had always been known for her compassionate nature. From a young age, she exhibited a deep empathy towards all living beings, whether they were human or animals. Her friends often marvelled at how she could sense the emotions of others and offer comfort in times of need. It was as if her heart had an innate ability to connect with the pain and joy that surrounded her. 
    Living in a small village nestled near the edge of a vast, enchanted forest, Amelia found herself in a world where nature's beauty was both her playground and her solace. The village was known for its close-knit community, where everyone looked out for one another. Amelia's compassion naturally found a home here, as she often volunteered to help the elderly, tended to injured birds, and offered a listening ear to those who sought her out. 
    One cool autumn day, as the leaves began to change their colours and the air carried a hint of impending winter, Amelia decided to take a solitary walk into the heart of the enchanting forest. She had always felt a deep connection to the wild, untouched parts of nature, where she could hear the whispers of the trees and feel the heartbeat of the earth beneath her feet.

    "Get out of my room. I'm your stepsister," I muttered, quickly hiding my naked breasts.
     
    "You only remember it around me?" he hissed, his silver eyes narrowing into my face.
     
    "I saw you with your other stepbrother," he added.
     
    "I didn't do anything with him either," I hissed.
     
    "Really? He didn't paint you naked?" As soon as he said that, I realized he had seen us together.
     
    "If you are going to let him touch you, then I should be allowed too," he stepped closer, "after all, I am not only your stepbrother but your mate too."
     
    I wish I could tell him that I have felt the mate bond with all my stepbrothers, and I was worried about what would be the end of us if anyone found out about this forbidden bond.
     
    ...
     
    Nora had lived a rather dull life until bullying in school escalated, and her stepfather made a decision to take her home and introduce her to her Alpha Stepbrothers.

Light and the gang soon find themselves traveling by carriage to the Onifolk Archipelago as part of the retinue of the bratty Holy Princess of the onis, Yotsuha, who is returning home from the Duchy. And as chance would have it, the princess is a close personal friend of Oboro, a former member of the Concord of the Tribes. Will Light be able to get his revenge on the oni that betrayed him without jeopardizing his party’s mission to raise their rank? And what exactly has the shady, secretive Oboro been up to since the two of them last saw each other?
