Samantha and the Empath

SIGNED HARD COVER

Some people feel everything. Others learn to feel nothing. But what happens when they find each other?

Daryl Foley has a gift that is also his greatest burden. He's an empath, able to sense and absorb the emotions of everyone around him. Happiness, sadness, anger, fear – he feels it all, often whether he wants to or not.

But there is one person he cannot read.

Samantha has spent years learning to keep her feelings locked away. Home is not the safe haven it should be, and the emotional scars of her childhood have taught her that feeling nothing is sometimes the only way to protect herself.

When Daryl begins seeing Samantha differently, his curiosity soon turns into something much deeper. For the first time, he finds himself drawn to someone whose emotions remain a mystery. He cannot tell whether she likes him, trusts him, or even wants him near.

And Samantha has her own reasons for keeping people at a distance.

As their friendship grows into something neither of them expected, Daryl discovers that understanding someone isn't always about knowing what they feel. Sometimes it means having the patience to listen, the courage to stay, and the willingness to love without expecting anything in return.

But can two people who have spent their lives hiding from their feelings find the strength to let each other in?

Samantha and the Empath is a heartfelt young adult romance about first love, emotional healing, the invisible wounds we carry, and discovering that even after the darkest days, happiness is still possible.
