"You don’t think I know how messed up this is? You think I don't know how sick and twisted it is of me to want you? I know this is wrong. I know I shouldn't even be thinking about you in this way but that doesn't change the fact that I do! Samantha, I want you every second of every minute of every day and it’s killing me. I can't stay away from you anymore, I just can't do it. I need you and I know you feel the same way about me. We belong together and nothing you say or do is going to convince me otherwise. When I’m with her... I’m aching for you, I physically hurt because I can't be with you and I don't know what the hell I'm supposed to do to make this right! Every single night you manage to invade my dreams, you consume every damn thought I have and there's no escaping it. The idea of never being able to have you is making me crazy. You're driving me insane and I'm seriously close to losing my mind if you tell me I can't have one more night with you. I can’t sleep, I can't eat... I can't even think about anything else other than you. You’re not the wrong girl, Samantha, she is.” – Zack. “There are roughly seven billion people in the world. Seven billion people and I’ve somehow managed to fall in love with the only person I can’t have. The only man on this earth who I can’t be with and who I should never, ever want. He’s my soul mate, my saviour and the only man I need. He’s also my sister’s fiancé.” - Samantha. Samantha is 23 and broken. She’s always been the one and only disappointment within her superficial and judgemental family. Over the years she’s given up on the idea of pleasing them, the only one who’s ever treated her fairly is Rachel and that’s why she doesn’t mind when all of the praise and glory is bestowed upon her older and extremely beautiful sister. She has never envied Rachel before… until now. Samantha feels something for her sister’s fiancé from the first moment that she sees him. He’s kind, gentle, unbelievably gorgeous and incredibly off-limits. She knows she shouldn’t want him but no matter what she does she can’t seem to get him out of her head. Of course all of the guilt and emotional torment that she’s dealing with is pointless because he doesn’t feel the same way about her… does he? Zack doesn’t understand the indescribable, overwhelming connection that he feels to his fiancé’s younger sister. At first he convinces himself that he only feels sorry for her, he doesn’t understand why the family he’s marrying into treat her like an outcast. He’s determined to find out what happened to this girl to make her so introverted and distrustful but even Rachel advises him to leave well alone. As he becomes more integrated within his fiancé’s world, Zack finds himself inextricably drawn to the extraordinary demure girl who’s about to become his sister-in-law. He can’t get her out of his head and the need to be with her compels him to seek more from her than he should ever desire. How long can Samantha and Zack deny what they’re feeling and stay away from one another? And will he still be there for her after he discovers her dark secret, one that she’s concealed for sixteen years? Decisions must be made and hearts will inevitably be broken when Zack is forced to make his choice. less
