The Arrangement (The Arrangement, #1)

by Kiersten Modglin

When I walked inside, the house was quiet. There were no happy footsteps rushing to greet me, to show me their latest masterpieces or tell me about their days. There were days when they were young when I begged for a minute of peace, a minute to breathe, or shower, or think…but this was worse. Back then, I had no idea how much peace I’d have one day all too soon.
