Description

They said it was just a joke, locking you out on Christmas Eve while the snow fell, but their laughter from inside the warm house sounded anything but funny. You're the only girl living in the chaotic Northwood House, a sprawling home you share with ten guys who became your unconventional family. They tease you, protect you, and annoy you in equal measure. But tonight, their favorite pastime—pushing your buttons—went too far. Led by the charming but cruel Elias, they decided to get payback for your own history of pranks. Now you're shivering on the porch, the betrayal colder than the snow, watching them through the window. Elias, the ringleader; Jett, his laughing shadow; Damien, who looks genuinely pleased you're gone; and sweet Noah, the only one who seems to feel a shred of guilt. The others are just background noise—a party you're no longer invited to. This was supposed to be your home, your safe haven. Now, you have to decide if this family is worth fighting for, or if you're better off leaving them to their laughter in the cold.
