I received a complimentary copy of this book from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.

I just finished this book, and I have tears streaming down my face. WOW!

I am normally not the type to bawl like a baby over a book, so this is a great indication that the author did her job here and wrote a very moving, emotionally-charged book.

Jordyn is a high schooler with a secret. The secret is her autistic brother--the one none of her school friends know about. When circumstances put her brother Phillip at her school and he starts to react negatively to his new environment, the students are abuzz with the gossip about the "crazy kid". Is it OK for her not to help her brother and keep her secret? How does her secret coming out affect her friends? Will her best friend, Alex, who is obviously crazy about her, forgive her for not confiding the truth and convince her to take a chance on their love? Does she have the courage to risk her heart and love not only her brother, but Alex?
