The Lucky One

There had always been a particularly special bond between Linda and her twin sister Ann -- for Ann was fragile and delicate where Linda was strong and practical, and always Linda had mothered and protected Ann.

Then Ann fell in love with the man Linda herself cared for. Should she back out -- or was it time, at last, to let Ann stand on her own feet and try to solve the problem for herself?

"What are my chances if I stay?"

Linda's heart leaped at Michael's question. She loved him, but she dared not admit her feelings.

Linda had spent a lifetime protecting and attempting to compensate for her delicate twin's disability. She had wondered if perhaps now was the time to make a break - let Ann stand on her own feet.

Then Ann had confessed her love for Michael - crushing Linda's plans. For Michael was the man she'd hoped to marry.
