Description
Family chaos, small-town dreams, and one unforgettable girl.
Fleurette Bradley has always been the afterthought-small, shy, and easy to overlook. In a household dominated by dazzling personalities-a glamorous mother clinging to past fame and a fiery older sister-Fleurette survives by staying out of the way. But invisibility comes at a cost.Fleurette is defined by what she lacks: confidence, ambition, and most of all, her mother's approval. Yet beneath her silence lies a deep emotional intelligence and a quiet resilience. As she navigates the chaos, heartbreak, and unexpected humour of family life in the small town of Wakenhill, Fleurette discovers her own strength and the courage to step out of the background and claim a life of her own.
