You think you have it bad as a teenager? What if you were
raised by a single, selfish mother in Las Vegas who always picked the wrong
type of guys and then marries them!
Carley Connor’s life hits a real low when her mother’s new
husband, Dennis, beats her up and then attacks Carley’s mom. A long hospital stay and rehabilitation for
her mom means that Carley must be placed in foster care.The Murphys are like no one Carley has ever known. Mrs. Murphy is too good to be true. She actually listens to Carley! Michael, Eric, and Adam are the sweetest boys, but the oldest son Daniel really has a chip on his shoulder. Mrs. Murphy is a Red Sox fanatic! Carley finds herself wondering, “Can I really find a place in such a family?”
If you enjoy reading realistic fiction, this book is a
perfect choice for you.
You will be cheering Carley on--hoping her past experiences
with her inadequate mother won’t prevent her from learning what a true family’s
love feels like.
