Product Overview
“The story includes a number of thought-provoking scenes about chastity; the characters are genuinely tested and have to make some tough decisions. These struck me as very realistic, and even the teens' conversations with older characters about chastity didn't seem the least bit ‘preachy.’ I wish I'd been able to read this book thirty years ago, as a Catholic high school kid trying to navigate these same waters.” – C.C. Blunt, Amazon reviewer
“Coming of age stories fall into ‘one of my favorite’ categories for novels, and this story lived up to my expectations. I would recommend this book for teens, especially those in a dating relationship, and for those who wish to understand them.” - Virginia Pillars, author of Broken Brain, Fortified Faith
“This book is full of relatable characters, touching family traumas, teenage passions, and an intriguing mystery. While an enjoyable story, this book deals with an important subject matter that teens face in our society: purity.” – Leslea Wahl, author of The Perfect Blindside
