Description
It begins with a secret. It is the last season of high school life for Nadia Turner, a rebellious, grief-stricken, seventeen year-old beauty. Mourning her mother's recent death, she takes up with the local pastor's twenty-one year old son, Luke. They are young; it's not serious. But the secret that results from this romance and the subsequent cover up will have an impact that goes far beyond their youth. As Nadia hides the truth from everyone including Aubrey, her best friend, the years move quickly. Soon, Nadia, Luke, and Aubrey are adults, still shadowed by the choices they made in their youth, and by the constant nagging question: What if they had chosen differently? -- from the back cover.
