It's no secret that I am not a huge fan of Sarah Dessen books. Her books seem to linger on way longer than necessary without a profound ending; however, I feel very different about this book. I loved every moment of it. Sure, the characters are a little darker than a normal SD character, but the depth of the characters enhanced the story.
Peyton is known for his bad choices, but he doesn't realize the impact his bad choices have on other people, particularly his sister, Layla. After Peyton severely harms a kid in a drunk driving accident, Layla changes schools and tries to start a new life: a life that doesn't include the horrors of what her brother has done. Layla meets the amicable, loving Chatham family who helps Layla heal while showing her a new type of family and love.
