"Samurai Girl" is a series of six novels by author Carrie Asai. It tells the story of Heaven Kogo, who as a baby was the lone survivor of a plane crash and was adopted by the wealthy Kogo family. At age nineteen, she is arranged to marry Teddy Yukemura, but her wedding is crashed by a ninja that kills her brother. She escapes to find out her lavish life and family isn't what she thought it was and must train under her brother friend, Hiro, the ways of the samurai to protect herself and loved ones.

On September 5, 2008, ABC Family aired a six-hour mini-series based on the series [ [http://abcfamily.go.com/abcfamily/path/section_Specials+Samurai-Girl/page_Detail?cid=psG0708samurai&pkw=Samurai%20Girl ABC Family: Samurai Girl TV Event {Official Site)] ] .
