For anyone that’s read Grounding Quinn, you know who Sydney is, but what you don’t know about her my shock you. This is a tough story to read at times, and for a good reason – it’s something I’m sure a lot of girls experience in their lives… and it’s sad. Her boyfriend Trevor is becoming more and more controlling and abusive. But Sydney is is taking it all in stride, trying to see the positive in everything. She’s working on her gymnastics, still grieving the death of her mother – and now is working with a documentary crew who is filming her for a film on Olympic Hopefuls. This girl has more than enough on her plate.Trevor….. well he use to be her savior, the one person she could count on to help her through everything, but once he isn’t getting enough attention from her things start going down hill fast…. and in walks Grant.Grant is a new student at their high school, and he and Sydney hit it off right from the start. They share a connection – one she hasn’t felt with Trevor in a very long time. As things progress Grant gets the feeling that something bad is going on between Sydney and her boyfriend and he wants to help. But that would make everything real – and Sydney can’t have that.We get to see Sydney and Grant’s relationship forge from the beginning and watch as he helps her realize she can’t continue on with Trevor, and that things will only get worse.The story is sad, beautiful, and very real.Check it out!
