pretty good

This book was pretty good, i think samanatha did a brave thing by taking on the responsibility of bringing up her stepsister jessica as her own child.

Very realistic, very very Good.

Samantha grew up real fast in the responsiblity department. But was oh so afraid of letting her heart go. Very good story with sweet and realsitic things going on. Her temper got her into hot water more than once, but she was always there with an apology. Once she let go, she knew how to love, with a capital 'L'. An Alex was definitely a man worth hanging on to.

Love conquers all.

I adored this story about spunky woman-child Samantha Desmond who took on the awesome responsibility of raising her stepsister Jessica after the death of her father and of Jessica's mother. She's a fighter who went to great lengths to provide a good safe environment for the child. After a few years of struggle, everything seems to be fine and finally Samantha finds perfect order for their lives. Jessica meets Melanie McKenzie and immediately the two become best girlfriends, but there's one problem: Melanie's drop dead gorgeous dad Alex, he doesn't approve of Samantha's lifestyle (or at least he doesn't want Melanie exposed to it). The book is perfectly written, and the love that blossoms takes many turns. I suggest everyone read this spicy, dramatic, and touching story about the Desmonds' and McKenzies'. This story lets you know that despite secrets, lies, deceit, and even bitter words - LOVE WILL CONQUER ALL.
