Stand-Alones
My Heart is Yours
Would you defy family for love?
Sam lost her biological parents at age five and was adopted into a loving family soon after. She has three overprotective brothers, their three best friends and two loving parents. Their world is turned upside down when their parents are killed in a car crash. Not wanting the family to split up her oldest brother, Craig, becomes her and her brothers legal guardian. Sam loves her older brother but he is the most overprotective of them all. Especially when he sees her and their long time friend, Jason, growing closer.
Sam denies that she has feelings for Jason but everyone else can see it (except Jason.) Her brother John says she’s afraid Craig won’t approve. It’s true, Sam is worried about that, but is that all that’s holding her back?
She doesn’t want to upset her older brother but deep down she knows there’s another reason for her denial. Sam has experienced so much loss, can she overcome that and open her heart? Even if she can, will Craig stand between them? What will she do if he does?
