Recommended  for fans of:

	Comparable to Pamela Clare's I-Team Series
	This is the first story I have read by Ms. Force and it certainly won't be the last! The story is about two high-school sweethearts Brian and Carly. Carly is a cheerleader with great grades, and Brian an amazing athlete. Brian doesn't want to be an all-star athlete, he wants to be a lawyer. They plan to get married and go to school together. They have an awesome future together, until one night a car accident kills 6 of their best friends including Brian's younger brother Sam. Brian and Carly witness the car accident and can do nothing to save their friends. Their grief nearly destroys them. Carly can't speak after the accident because of the trauma, and Brian wants to move on with Carly, but doesn't know how to reach her or deal with his own loss and grief....so he leaves to go to school, and doesn't come back for 15 years until his father (the towns Chief of Police) collapses due to a case he's working on. The case his father's working on is a man who kidnaps, rapes, and tortures Cheerleaders, and one of Carly's nieces friends has been taken leaving the town once again traumatized. This is a story of such loss, and survival, and also the incredible love these two characters have for one another! I was in tears so many times because my heart broke for the circumstances these two had to live through just to survive. AN AMAZING READ!!! (less)
