Lucy is under pressure to succeed and needs to focus on her end-of-year exams-the last thing she needs now is an intense boyfriend.

Even though Carl loves Lucy, breaking up with him feels like the only way to keep her dreams on track. But sometimes even right decisions can have awful consequences. Carl crashes his car, breaking his best friend's neck and leaving himself in a coma. Meanwhile, Lucy discovers that she's pregnant. What unfolds is a complex drama, full of unexpected twists and turns that will keep teen readers hooked until the very end.
