Lean on Me
A perfect life... or the perfect lie?
Sixteen, wealthy, popular, and dating the hottest guy in school, my life seems ripped from the pages of a magazine. But those achievements create a spotlight that casts dangerous shadows.
When a pregnancy test shatters my illusions, I discover how quickly everything can change.
My boyfriend, Jake, the town's football hero, will let nothing derail his future. Not even our baby.
Betrayed and alone, I'm left fighting for my life against the boy everyone thinks is perfect. With only my best friend, Matt, on my side, I'm determined to protect the tiny life growing inside me.
But in a world where image is everything and Jake can do no wrong, can I survive his wrath and expose the truth behind his perfect facade?
Will my child and I become another statistic, or will we triumph against the odds stacked against us?
