But a greater plan was at work for this small ember, and the black emptiness that shadowed her small existence would soon fall away, to become a light out of the darkness.Set in their ways and too blind to see beyond their own selfish needs, the Miller boys had it all. Growing up in the world of the elite, nothing could have prepared them for the year they met Jessie. All trying to steal her heart, only fate and time would tell who would be her prince.
