Elsie Taylor knew nothing more than the life that involved the constant moving around. She had always thought that it was normal to not have a place to call home, as she was too young to understand what was really going on. 

"I knew nothing more than the 100 of states and countries that I had ever stayed in" 

Elsie didn't know that there was a whole other side to the life she was living. She had no idea that there was people out there, searching for her, to bring her home. To get her away from the father that she had always known. The same father that had ruined her childhood. 

Elsie's eldest brother, Henry, was just about the only person that had ever met this little girl. Their other brothers had been too young or absent at the one time that she was seen with them, before she was whisked away from their arms. 

"She is just a kid. She doesn't understand what you did to her!" 

Now, it was their time to follow the string that would bring their little 8-year old sister back home, safely. But what happens when their is bumps in the road that leads them into trouble that may not bring everyone out safely on the other side

Blair Evermore: a simple kid with a complicated life. With a brother that would do anything for her and two FBI agents for parents, she doesn't have the safest life. She was never the first to volunteer her parents for career day, and "bring your child to work" was a foreign concept. But she liked it that way. She didn't know any different. Blair was content with the way things were, because even though they were distant, she always knew her parents loved her. But all that changed on her nineth birthday. That's when she experienced the hardest year anyone could imagine. One month that felt like a lifetime. A week full of tears and sorrow. And one day that changed her life forever. October 27th, the day her parents died. Killed during a last-minute undercover job, Amanda and Bryan Evermore were prepared for the inevitable. That didn't make it any easier for their children though. Grayson and Blair's whole world turned upside down. Neither of them knew what to do, but they coped the best they could. Now, seven years later, Grayson is missing. Without any leads or witnesses, the FBI is having trouble finding him. That was until Blair got involved. With a letter from her parent's murderers, another from Grayson's potential kidnappers, and a whole lot of will power, she leads her new-found FBI buddies through riddles, secrets, and puzzles, gathering as much information as they can to get justice for her family. She knew exactly what she was going to do once they found the people who destroyed her all those years ago. She would make them pay. But sometimes what we plan doesn't always work out quite right. ************************* Started:1/1/2023 Finished: 9/26/2024 © 2023 Taylor Sassone Cover by my amazing sister @owlhootsburger13

"𝔼𝕍𝔼ℝ𝕐 𝔽𝔸𝕄𝕀𝕃𝕐 ℍ𝔸𝕊 𝕊𝔼ℂℝ𝔼𝕋𝕊" - - - "My name is Hazel, but most people call me Ze. I'm from Melbourne, and love Taylor Swift." I cringe at my own words, and think back to a time where Fletcher was one of the only people calling me Ze. "Does anyone have questions for Miss. Bolivi?" Fletcher asks, and I hate the way my father's last name sounds on his lips. Lots of students raise their hands, and I feel overwhelmed. People actually want to learn something about me? "Yes, Miss. Abbott. Ask away," Fletcher says to one of the girls who is seated at a table at the front of the class, with other kids who all look bitchy like her. "Are you related to the Bolivi brothers?" Her disgustingly sweet voice pukes out. "My last name is Bailey," I say coldly, hating how that was her only query about me. - - - Hazel Bailey. She's your typical Australian teenage girl. From going out with friends every Friday night, to crushing on university boys. But what happens when this seemingly normal girl experiences the loss of her mother? Fearing that she's going to go into foster care, Hazel begins to stress, but she quickly discovers that she's not going to go into the system. Instead, her five older brothers have gained custody of her. The same five older brothers she never knew existed. Something about them seems off, and Hazel can't help acting wary. But they're not the only ones with secrets. Join Hazel in a journey of lies, love, attachment, and humor.

Avery Elizabeth Romano had a twin, whom she loved dearly. Yes, you heard it right, had. Her twin was taken away by her mother at the age of 5. Her father was killed on the same day. Her brothers abandoned her on the very same day as well. Sounds tragic, right? There were so many instances that made her want to leave everything behind and run away, to escape the place where she had once called her home. But she stayed, one time after another despite being ignored by everyone in the family. Her so called brothers shunned her away because of what happened that night. Why did she stay? No one could understand. Even at school, she was an outcast as everyone knew her as the girl who was abandoned by her family. She took everything no matter what life threw at her. She clung onto life despite knowing there was no meaning to it. Just because of a promise she made. She did not want to go back on her promise. The once kind and cheerful girl was now replaced with a cold facade, pretending everything was all right when nothing was. It's funny how everyone realise someone's worth only when they are gone. But the sad question was, will anyone even notice Avery's worth when she is gone? A/N: as usual I'm still bad at descriptions but I'm so glad to be back on wattpad writing again!

Genevieve Anderson, the girl that had been left behind and forgotten. In a town where everybody knows everybody, meaning that no one goes unnoticed. Nobody just grabs a bag and leaves in the middle of the night, without someone seeing something. Nobody changes identity over night, and is suddenly left with the care of their father in her hands. Forgotten over night, Genevieve changes the person that everyone thought they knew. Gone was the girl that would smile and wave to everyone, was replaced by a girl that had a need for stealing and getting by every day. She had been left with the responsibility of an old ranch that was no longer in operation and the care of her father, who had been to war, and was suffering from additions like there was no tomorrow. Gone was the girl that depended on her big brothers to open the gate, replaced with a girl that worked long hours at the ranch, before she was sneaking out after midnight, to drive whatever cars her brothers had left behind. Except, one day, something happens and everything takes a turn for the worse. "I left you here, for 20 minuets, and you have already let him relapse?! I trusted you, for a second, and you backstabbed me?! I can't believe any of you anymore, because you are made of lies!" Holding on by a string, Genevieve isn't sure how much more she can take, especially when people appear from the past she thought she left behind, when she was 5 years old. Time moves on for a reason, doesn't it? "I told you to forget about it. It's in the past, and nobody has ever asked me to do what you are asking me to do. You are asking me to put away my boots and hat, and stand in front of people in heels and a puffy dress. That's not who I am, if you had stuck around to find out who I really am.

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?

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?
