'A laudable debut. Young Adults? You're in for a treat' Nudge Books
Troubled. That's seventeen-year-old Gen according to her small New Jersey town. She finds refuge and stability in her relationship with her boyfriend, Peter, until he abandons her at a Planned Parenthood clinic during their appointment to terminate a pregnancy. The betrayal causes Gen to question everything.
As Gen pushes herself forward to find her new identity without Peter, the flimsy story of their undying love begins to unravel. But it's when Gen lets go of her past, the one she thinks she knows, that she's able to embrace the complicated, chaotic true story of her life.
