You need to reach inside yourself and make sure of your motivation. If you love her and are NOT trying to rescue her then go on and move forward. However, if you're attracted to the idea that you're going to be SAVING her, be very careful.
Some people (like people raised around addicts / alcoholics) have a predilection for being attracted to people that they perceive need rescuing. These relationships can end poorly, as after years of living with these people life can be a series of dramas that few can stand.
Just make sure that you have an honest and healthy foundation. A lack of drama is a good first test - Drama, or her being a victim of others is the first red flag.

it is not wrong aslong as you are both of legal age
and this is not considered
incest by any mean,
you might expect some trouble from your mother and sisters regarding her the age gap tough
but mothers and sisters well always find something to complain about their brother's/son's wife any way !

Well if it might be what she wants, then you two can overcome all the rest.
