When, after sixty years, Ron traced Doris, the sister he had never met before, he had no idea he would open a Pandora’s Box of emotions and fall madly in love with her.

Ron is one of a seemingly growing number of people experiencing a phenomenon experts call ‘Genetic Sexual Attraction’, where siblings who grow up separately and meet for the first time as adults and strangers can fall prey to an overwhelming incestuous desire for each other. More people than ever are now able to trace blood relatives through genealogy websites and adoption agencies.

As many as 50% of siblings reunited as adults are said to experience these same powerful feelings. (Post-Adoption Centre & Maurice Greenberg and Roland Littlewood, UCL. 1995)

Brothers and Sisters in Love has exclusive access to siblings from the UK, Germany and America who have confronted the greatest moral dilemma of their lives and risked everything –including breaking the law – to be together.
