Expelled from high school number one, Tyler Ruiz is attending his second. Not a great record for a sophomore with anger issues. Then he meets Sara Allen. Tyler s a good-looking guy, so he figures Sara s an easy hookup. But she isn t. She s complicated. And uninterested. Which makes Tyler want her even more. As he learns about Sara s punk rock world, Tyler s protective outer layers peel away. And he falls hard for a girl who is mentally unstable and achingly vulnerable. Hard-hitting, contemporary young adult fiction is not trendy--it s not dystopia. There are no vampires, no werewolves, no castles. It s real life. It s unflinching. Gravel Road highlights the talent of YA authors committed to creating realistic fiction with emotional authenticity. No topic is off-limits: suicide, homosexuality, drugs, rape, gangs, bullying. Teens live with this reality each day. And they find a way to survive. Each paperback book is 200 to 275 pages."
