Publisher Description
Janet Gurtler’s books have been called "just right for fans of Sarah Dessen and Jodi Picoult" (Booklist) and "reminiscent of Judy Blume" (RT Book Reviews). In this riveting contemporary YA read, she explores the consequences of keeping the ultimate secret.
One small mistake. One giant secret.
Jazz wasn’t supposed to have seen her mother’s boyfriend that night. Especially not making out with one of her friends! Worse yet, she goes to tell her mom and gets the ultimate bombshell: her mom’s pregnant. Now, Jazz can never reveal what she’s seen. No matter what.
The only one who seems to understand her is Jackson. Rumors are swirling that he’s just out of reform school. But right now—with everything going on—Jazz isn’t afraid to live on the edge a little…
Praise for Janet Gurtler:
"Gutler’s writing unfurls with the exquisite grace of a flower." — Sarah Ockler, bestselling author of Fixing Delilah and Twenty Boy Summer
Customer Reviews
Wow!
This book was a fantastic overview of what bullying and racism are like in schools, and at the same time adding modern problems in teen lives. I think that this book hit the nail right on the head and showed that a romantic story can also include dilemmas that aren't the modern day love story twist of events. I think that teens will love this detail packed novel because it portrays scenarios that they may be experiencing. Although the author says she was criticized for this book I think that if the reviewer reads between the lines they will realize that there is no reason to feel that this book has any problem. I highly suggest this book to any teen that would like a good read and that likes romantic novels.
