The Best Teen Romance!, May 24 2003
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Stephanie: Heart of Gold (Paperback)
This is by far the Best romance pocketbook I have ever read! The plot is suspensful and the feelings are intense. Wow! I could even picture myself there! Its about a girl learning to be a better person and the meaning of true love. And, most importantly, sometimes you just have to open your eyes and see that true love is glaring right at you...
