What could possibly go wrong? 

Will her new family treat her the same way 'they' treated her? Or will they show her that life is more than what she thinks it is?

There are a lot of secrets that everyone seems to be keeping are waiting to be unravelled.

She's Resilient to make it this far. But how far will she go?

Alicia and Her Six Brothers by tomismal1

Follow along as six brothers find out their mother, who ran away in the dead of night 15 years ago, was pregnant and hid their sister from them. The brothers may save Alicia, but in doing so, they are also risking her life by introducing her as the mafia princess. Any similarities to other stories are unintentional. The general theme of mafia siblings is pretty common, so I am adding some parts to make it more unique. I hope you enjoy it! 9/19/25 - #15 of "mafia" 9/7/25 - #20 of "mafiaprincess" 8/24/25 - #2 of "americanmafia" 8/20/25 - #9 of "longlostsister" 8/3/25 - #26 of "littlesister" 7/29/25 - #8 of "olderbrother"

My Dear Brothers|✓| by LoveFoodAndSleep

"You know, I always thought that this situation would play out differently." I said and their heads snapped up. Their jaws dropped and I gave them a small smile. "Am I hallucinating?" Roman murmured as he stared at me. "If you are hallucinating Isabella, then we have reached new levels of twin telepathy I did not know could be reached." Alex replied. I let out a small chuckle and unlocked the cuffs attached to their hands and they looked at me in disbelief. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Isabella has never fit in with others. She was never the most beautiful girl nor was she the most studious. She was, in a word, boring. Her life seemed plain and she made sure no one knew what was actually going on at home. She made sure that her life at home was hidden no matter how much it broke her. What happens when her family is gone and she comes to know that she is not really who she thinks she is? What happens when she goes to live with her brothers who she did not even know existed? (I'm sorry, I'm horrible at descriptions. Please give this story a chance. There might be mild cursing) #1 in lifechanging on September 21, 2020 #82 in school on October 23, 2020

ROSETTI FAMILY by adelinabuca

My name is Antonia and I am 16 years old. Until recently, my life was a hell that I didn't think I would ever get out of. My father... not only would he yell at me, but he would raise his hand without hesitation, whenever he had a reason - or even when he didn't. My mother? Just as guilty, but in a different way. Her words tore me apart worse than any blow. I lived for years believing that this was my life, that this was what I deserved. Then, one day, everything changed. A black car, strangers who knew my name, my story. They told me that these people - the ones who had destroyed me - weren't even my parents. My real family had been looking for me for years. Arthur and Teresa Rosetti, the leaders of a world I had only heard stories about, are my biological parents. And now I find myself here, in their midst. I have six siblings. Six strangers who, although they share my blood, seem inscrutable. Everyone is different. Some are strict, rigid, as if my every move is a test. Others seem gentler, but something in their eyes keeps me at a distance. And some are simply cold... and even harsh. They look at me with envy, as if they don't know what to do with me, as if I'm an extra problem they didn't want. And... my twin. Yes, my twin. It still seems hard to believe. I've always felt a void he couldn't explain, an absence that gnaws at me. Now that I'm here, next to him, that void has been filled. But they don't know me. They think I had an ordinary past, that I'm a simple girl, maybe just a little disoriented by change. They don't know what I've been through, they don't know about the wounds I hide under my long sleeves and forced smiles. My trauma is a secret, and the hell I went through is something I can't tell them yet. And me? I'm caught between the fear of opening up and the desire to understand them. I'm Antonia Rosetti, a girl trying to leave hell behind, but who still doesn't know how to live in the light. 1. #mafiadaughter 14.06.2025 🏆

Sixteen-year-old Olive Monroe has never known freedom. Trapped in a dimly lit corner of a crumbling Arizona house, she's kept under the watch of her cruel stepfather, Rex. She dreams of sunlight, open skies, and a life beyond the shadows-but dreaming is the closest she's ever come to escaping. When Rex is arrested, Olive learns a shocking truth: she has five older brothers. Men who command respect with the click of a heel. Men who have spent fifteen years searching for the sister stolen from them. For Matteo Conti, the night the phone call comes is the first time he's been able to breathe since that day. Now, his baby sister is finally coming home. But the girl he finds is not the one he remembers-she's quiet, skittish, and flinches at the smallest sound. As Olive navigates a new world of power, protection, and overwhelming family love, she faces a choice: keep her past locked away, or trust her brothers with the truth. And for the Conti brothers, the question becomes-can the most influential men in the world learn how to be gentle for the one person they'd burn it all down to protect?

Athena by Aggelikiii05

Teenage years are supposed to be the best time of your life. Have fun, break the rules, fall in love, just living your life to the fullest.

Finding Her - Saving Them by tomismal1

It's been 13 years, but her brothers never gave up looking for her. Everything they did, she was in the back of their minds. Where was she? Why couldn't they find her? Was she ok? An unfortunate event led them together, but things are never as easy as they seem. Any similarities between the story and characters and other works are unintentional. I am trying to keep bringing in new ideas despite the storyline of brothers finding their missing sister being common. 8/15/25 - #1 in "Italian Mafia" 8/22/25 - #1 in"Overprotectiveolderbrothers" 8/28/25 - #20 in "lostandfound" 9/23/25 - #2 in "abuse" 11/7/25 - #20 in "longlostsister"
