Another great work by Ellen Hopkins. This story follows pattyn a young woman in a Mormon family dealing with a violent alcoholic father. Once she gets in trouble pattyn is sent to spend the summer with her aunt where she finds freedom and true love. The story ends with an unforgettable twist that left me in tears
