Hi, my name is Heather Robyn and I am the newest member of the published author population. My first YA book, Group, was released on March 12th. I am a single mother of two, who recently relocated from San Diego to the Bay Area. I wrote Group during my daily train commutes four years ago. Writing a book was always a dream of mine so I took the step writing a little each day until I had what is published today. My kids are my inspiration for creative means (my daughter and I took the front cover photo ourselves in the hallway of our apartment lol), having spent the last decade as a trio until just recently. I hope you enjoy reading the book as much as I enjoyed writing it. ~ Heather

Twins Jade and Pearl enjoyed high school life to the fullest in the suburbs of Oregon. Jade, a star Lacrosse player, was set to attend Boston University in the Fall, and Pearl, the debate team captain was headed to UCLA. Senior year should have ended with memories from prom, graduation, and preparing for college, but Jade’s sudden death has left the Juarez sisters facing the world without each other for the first time in their lives.
Catapulted into a new and unfamiliar world, Jade is required to attend transitional support group to come to terms with her death and progress on to the next stage. But one issue stands in her way…remembering facts surrounding how she died. Her journey to unravel these details meets her head on with revelations about herself she cannot fathom. She befriends Ezekiel in group who helps her see in herself there is more to death than just moving on.
Having been left alone without her sister and best friend, Pearl spirals into an abyss of crushing grief and depression, until one day Jamie forces her to attend a grief support group to help pull her out of the darkness. Reluctant to attend, she meets a stranger who turns her world upside down and ignites a love she has never felt before in another man, but she wonders if it is enough for her to heal? Can the bond between two sisters survive the throes of death, grief, love, and everything in between?
