Leslie can't seem to avoid trouble, whether it's at school or at home. Just as life seems at its lowest, Jason McCready, the exceedingly cool new guy at school, enters her life. Now Leslie is the envy of all the girls. But Jason's appearance is deceiving –he is determined to control every aspect of Leslie's life and he begins terrorizing her in unimaginable ways. When a substitute teacher reads the private English-class journal in which Leslie reveals Jason's abuse, Leslie is suddenly forced into hard choices and terrifying action to take back her life.

      Leslie, a tough teen with a quick mouth, melts like butter when heartthrob Jason shows interest in her. He sweet-talks her past his controlling behavior and her bruises, and when sweet-talk stops working, he starts stalking her. Stratton captures the rhythms of teen speech, and the subject matter is treated subtly enough that readers will stay with Leslie as she realizes what's going on and decides to take a stand.
