When your mom just packs up and leaves, you must find someone to hold onto. But what if you choose the wrong someone?
Book-smart, top-of-her-class Melina has never felt more confused. With a mom who suddenly took off for Seattle, and a dad who spends all night pounding out sad piano music, they’re nothing like the card-playing, barbeque-hosting family they used to be.
Determined to stay away from her empty home, Melina finds refuge in her friends: church-going, fly fisherman Lyde; theatrical, warm-hearted Bree—and Marcus. Popular. Self-assured. Extroverted. Marcus is everything Melina isn’t.
Different as they are, Melina finds out she and Marcus have a lot in common: they’re both big dreamers, passionate about the future, anxious to leave their desert hometown and change the world. But just as Melina lets herself fall for him, everything goes wrong.
Has she put her trust in the wrong guy? And where is God in all of this? Why, just when she’s started looking for Him, have her dreams blown to smithereens?
Melina’s story is about finding family and loving family, even amidst the storm, even when the sky turns dark, the wind howls, and sand pelts you in the face. It’s about the power of Love, God, and Mexican Pastries.
This young adult novel is a warmhearted look at what it takes to keep your family together through impossible circumstances. It will appeal to fans of Sara Zarr and John Green, novels such as Eleanor and Park and Ask Me Three Things, and movies like Juno.
