My Heart is Yours
By: Amanda Leigh
Samantha Marie Ramsden has three brothers. Craig, John
and Matt. When tragedy strikes their family, Craig takes on the task of becoming his siblings
legal guardian. It’s hard enough being someone’s guardian, but when you’ve only recently
entered adulthood yourself it’s almost impossible to know where to draw the line between
sibling and ‘parent’. This is made even harder on him when Sam starts to get close to a long
time friend, Jason. It looks like their friendship could turn into something more. An idea that
Craig has never been too happy with. Spanning six years, My Heart is Yours explores family,
friendship, love and much more. As well as asking the question: Would you defy family for love?
