Summary: |
"A young woman who has skyrocketed to fame is guarded but hopeful when she receives an email from a stranger who claims not only to have information about the father she never knew but also to be her half sister"-- Provided by publisher. Sloan Gabriel won a reality television singing competition, and now she has a manager, a recording contract, and a tour in the works. Then she gets an email from a young woman who claims to be her half sister. Sloan's mother never said who her father was, so the prospect of knowing some family history is too strong a desire to ignore. Returning to Windemere, the town where she grew up, Sloan faces a past she's worked hard to forget. Soon she must make a complicated choice involving not only herself, but also those who have come to depend on her. |

Author Notes: |
Her first book was Kickaroo: The Soccer Playing Kangaroo. She soon realized that writing picture books was not what she wanted to do, so she wrote Will Never Dance Again, about a girl who is diagnosed with diabetes. Thus began her career writing stories about teenagers who overcome life altering illnesses and the lessons learned. Her other books include Somewhere Between Life and Death, Too Young to Die, Goodbye Doesn't Mean Forever, Six Months to Live, and The Year of Chasing Dreams. She received a RITA Award for Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep and three IRA-CBC Children's Choice Awards. (Bowker Author Biography) |
