Fourteen-year-old Julian's parents separated when he was a baby and he is still angry and hurt. His mother has had relationships since-all of which have ended disastrously-but this time it seems serious. Jean-Paul looks like he might be the real thing.
Julian is wary-and critical-as he comes to terms with the fact that he and his brother may have to let down their defenses and allow their mother to find happiness. On a road trip with his mother and her new beau, Julian finds that love-and happiness-come in many guises. In the end, he realizes that it is not blood that determines true family, but the willingness to stand together.
This short novel is a high-interest, low-reading level book for teen readers who are building reading skills, want a quick read or say they don't like to read!
