Pride, Nightingale, and Baby Star have learned to rely on each other.  First their father died, then their mother, and now the grandfather who so kindly took them in, is very ill in the hospital.  Pride knows that it is up to her to keep the family together.  If anyone finds out that there are 3 children living in a cabin alone, she knows that the county is going to step in and split up their close knit group.  It's up to Pride and her siblings to stay one step ahead of all the grownups who want to get involved in their business.
