Samantha Darling

Despite years of therapy, Samantha Roberts isn’t one for sharing her feelings or talking about her dead mother and contentious relationship with her father and his new wife until her beautiful new neighbor Wes Cohen convinces her that they should tell each other a truth.

Wes is the first person to not run after hearing about Sam’s past. As the two develop a friendship that Wes insists can never be more, Sam begins to heal while discovering that Wes isn’t as perfect inside as he is on the surface and believes his past is the reason he won’t be with her, but the actual reason is more heartbreaking than she could have imagined.
