About This Book
Having been discovered in the illicit romance with her uncle, Megan Morgan is forced to face life without her uncle's counsel. Initially, Megan pushes back into her many school activities to fill the void but soon finds herself frustrated by a number of situations. Megan's recently discovered sister-in-arms, Kelly Simmons, now only has time for new love Ryan Royek. Megan's mother, Kate, has also become enamored with an attorney, Gus Leone, whom Kate meets through her court-reporting endeavors. Joe Edwards, the boy with whom Megan attended her school's Mistletoe Ball, is sidelined from dating Megan with a sport related injury. Megan must also find a way to deal with Harry Campbell, the counselor that Kate has required Megan to see for ten sessions in order to acquire insight on Megan's affair with Uncle Jack. Matters come to a head the night of the school play. Megan becomes involved in many bizarre activities at a clandestine post-play party at the home of the son of a wealthy plastic surgeon. New alliances formed at the party will later prove crucial in Megan's life. She finds Paul Ugalini, the party host, and Nadine Cortez, a young photojournalist, both alluring and perplexing, and discovers why Paul's precocious younger sister, Francesca, refers to the family bathroom as the "great bath." On her return home, Megan is forced to accept assistance from a person she despises and consequently encounters two overwhelming traumatic events. Megan must draw on the help of family and friends plus her own resources to survive and overcome the aftermath of those events.
