In Her Place

55

At just eighteen, Emily Carter has lost her sister, her best friend, and her sense of direction all in a single day. Her sister Sophie, beloved and admired by everyone, passed away during childbirth, leaving behind twin newborns… and a grieving husband, Daniel Miller, a man Emily barely knows beyond polite family gatherings. No one expected Emily’s life to change so drastically. But her sister’s final handwritten letter left instructions no one can ignore: “Emily, if anything happens to me… please marry Daniel. Be there for my babies. I trust you.” Neither Emily nor Daniel wants this arrangement. But grief, duty, and the weight of Sophie’s final wish leave them little choice.
