Falling in love with your brother in law

Has anyone ever fallen in love with their brother in law after their sister passed away? My sister and I were very close and when she passed away my brother in law and I were both having a very hard time. We have spent hours on the phone talking and consoling each other and before we knew it we were becoming very close ourselves. I have always had a close bond with him being as I was so close with my sister and he was her childhood sweetheart. He is a very unique and wonderful man and I can understand why my sister was so in love with him.

I believe in my heart that she would be happy for us but I am not so sure that the others in the family will feel that way.
