The Tyler family had the perfect life - until sixteen-year-old Leah decided she didn't want to be perfect anymore.

Will this family survive? What happens when love just isn't enough?
Jodi Picoult fans will love this beautifully written and absorbing novel.
DESCRIPTION
Protecting their children comes naturally for Zoe and Will Tyler—until their daughter Leah decides to actively destroy her own future.
Leah grew up in a privileged upper-middle class world. Her parents spared no expense for her happiness; she had all-but secured an Ivy League scholarship and a future as a star athlete. Then she met Todd.
Leah’s parents watch helplessly as their daughter falls into a world of drugs, sex, and wild parties. While Will attempts to control his daughter’s every move to prevent her from falling deeper into this dangerous new life, Zoe prefers to give Leah slack in the hope that she may learn from her mistakes. Their divided approach drives their daughter out of their home and a wedge into their marriage.
Twelve-year-old Justine observes Leah’s rebellion from the shadows of their fragmented family. She desperately seeks her big sister’s approval and will do whatever it takes to obtain it. Meanwhile she is left to question whether her parents love her and whether God even knows she exists.
What happens when love just isn’t enough? Who will pay the consequences of Leah’s vagrant lifestyle? Can this broken family survive the destruction left in Leah’s wake?
This mesmerizing debut novel tells the tale of a contemporary American family caught in the throes of adolescent rebellion - a heartbreaking, funny, ultimately redemptive quest for love, independence, connection and grace.

The novel by Ms. Long is of the fictional literature genre in the context of existentialism. The prose style is anonymous scene narration and character dialog. The writing is straight forward; a non-complex structure that should be well accepted by a wide audience. A note for e-reader users that the electronic edition of the novel contains some grammatical errors, however, they are obvious and do not detract substantially from the reading experience. The majority of the language in the story is benign; however, there are instances of earthy vernacular and a couple of mild sexual encounters. The novel would be appropriate for "coming of age" teenagers.
