What happens next

Synopsis:

"How can you talk about something you can’t remember?

Before the ski trip, sixteen-year-old Cassidy “Sid” Murphy was a cheerleader (at the bottom of the pyramid, but still...), a straight-A student, and a member of a solid trio of best friends. When she ends up on a ski lift next to handsome local college boy, Dax Windsor, she’s thrilled; but Dax takes everything from Sid—including a lock of her perfect red curls—and she can’t remember any of it.

Back home and unable to relate to her old friends, Sid drops her college prep classes and takes up residence in the A/V room with only Corey “The Living Stoner” Livingston for company. But as she gets to know Corey (slacker, baker, total dreamboat), Sid finds someone who truly makes her happy. Now, if she can just shake the nightmares and those few extra pounds, everything will be perfect... or so she thinks.

Witty and poignant, Colleen Clayton’s stunning debut is a story about moving on after the unthinkable happens."(Taken from; Good Reads)

Review:

Even though this book was about rape, it was beautiful and at the same time heartbreaking.  Colleen Clayton writes with a passion that’s rarely seen. She takes you through a roller coaster of emotions. You feel Sid’s agony, her worries, and her insecurities.  You will also fall in love with Corey, even if he isn’t developed as a character through the first half of the book. I highly recommend this book, but prepare yourself for mix emotions.
