<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>A poignant, thoughtful, and witty debut about a teen girl trying to piece herlife back together after the unthinkable happens on a school ski trip.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><i>How can you talk about something that you can't remember?</i><br><b>Before the ski trip, Cassidy Sid Murphy was a cheerleader (on the bottom of the pyramid, but still...) and a straight-A student, with two of the best friends a girl could ask for. </b><br>When Sid finds herself on a ski lift with hunky local college guy, Dax Windsor, she's thrilled. Come to a party with me, he tells her, but Dax isn't what he seems. He takes everything from Sid-including a lock of her perfect red curls--and she can't remember any of it.<br><b>After the ski trip, Sid is an insomniac and an obsessive late-night runner, unable to relate to her old friends.</b><br>Caught in a downward spiral, 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 only she could shake the nightmares, everything would be perfect... <br>Witty and poignant, Colleen Clayton's debut is a stunning story of moving on after the unthinkable happens<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><b>Jennifer Brown, author of Hate List, Bitter End, and Perfect Escape</b></i><br><br>* Equal parts endearing spunk and heartbreaking vulnerability, Sid Murphy is a character who feels more like family by story's end.

Real issues. Real writing...Heartbreaking, but still filled with hope and promise, author Colleen Clayton knows that the past can't be rewritten, but you can ruin the future by not learning from it.--<i><b>Holly Goldberg Sloan, author of I'll Be There</b></i><br><br>Sad, funny, and true, this book hits all the right notes--<i><b>Miranda Kenneally, author of Catching Jordan and Stealing Parker</b></i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Like Sid, <b>Colleen Clayton</b> grew up in the suburbs just outside of Cleveland, Ohio.
