I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.This is the first book I have read from this author and enjoyed her writing style, I did find the characters to be older in their ways than their age. Most teens wouldn't be as mature in these situations as Bri and her friend Matt. Sometimes I forgot they were only 16 and not in their 20's. Becoming a teen mom is anything but easy but to have your own parents disown you would be the worst especially in that time.. I can't even imagine turning my kids away if they made a big mistake in their lives.The author does a wonderful job with the story line and developing each character. I really loved the relationship between Bri and Matt. They have have been friends since they were little and as they grew their friendship grew into something more that neither realized until Bri was pregnant.  I had so many emotions throughout this novel. It is really a touchy subject but the author did a great job and did it very tasteful for the subject. Bri is really a tough girl with her head on straight, even with the hand she has been dealt she will succeed with what she wants in life. This was a great read.I give this book a 4 out of 5 stars. I look forward to reading more by Candy Crum in the future.
