Leanne raised her three siblings when there mother died and there father had to work all the time, but then Leanne's father remarried and Rena saw Leanne as a threat. Rena wanted children, so she basically kicked Leanne out and took over as the role of mother to the three children. From that point on, Leanne was basically an outsider to her own family. Her siblings assume that she abandoned them. Leanne never thought she would be close to her family again.Only her sister reaches out to her and wants her to be her unborn twin boys godmother. Leanne is thrilled, but before she can reach her sisters bedside the worst happens and her sister dies after the birth of the boys. Leanne wants to help her sisters husband Mitch, but at the funeral he is hurting and lashes out at Leanne. Mitch sees Leanne as a cold hearted woman who repeatedly hurt her siblings. Now Eighteen months later Leanne finds out that Mitch is in trouble and could lose the boys. Leanne returns to Chicago to try and help. The problem is that to help Mitch she needs to marry him (in name only of course). Leanne knows that her family will never understand. Leanne also knows that she wants her marriage to be more than in name only.This is a very emotionally interesting story. As the reader, I tried to put myself in Leanne's place and knew that I would struggle with the same emotions that both she and Mitch were struggling with. Anger, Guilt, and more Guilt appear to take over Leanne and Mitch's lives. Both of them must come to terms with the past and deal with the present if the want to have a future. The way this story unfolds is both tragic and inspiring.
