About the Book

Fifteen-year-old Kendra James hasn't been feeling like herself lately. It isn't anything she can explain. And it isn't anything anyone seems to want to hear.

Except for Uncle C.J., who secretly begins to shower her with gifts, money - and even better - the attention she so desperately craves. At first Kendra is willing to keep their relationship quiet. But then her uncle makes a move that changes everything forever and sends her world into a tailspin from which she's not sure she'll ever recover.

Note from the Author: This book contains no profanity or graphic scenes.

WHAT THE JUDGES SAID*

"I almost wish that Kendra was a real girl so I could hug her, offer her some chocolate, and lend her to some of my friends whose shoulders make great tear-catchers. This novel is painfully honest."

Nicole P.

"I loved the voice and the easy-going attitude and style. Kendra's very down to earth and you can't help but like her and root for her."

"This story hits all of your emotions."
