DeLaine finds herself at home after the Christmas break with a whole new outlook. It’s the first time she can remember coming home without everything seeming so bleak. Her stepbrother Geoffrey and stepmother Clarice are nice to her, which is a surprise, but DeLaine doesn’t trust them. The main reason she is happy to come home is to see Kevin Strong and love him from afar. If Geoffrey weren’t so crazy jealous of her and Kevin being together, DeLaine thinks her world might be as close to perfect as possible. Perfection would be a real relationship with the most beautiful boy in the world. He provides strength and stability but mostly a feeling of love and protectiveness that DeLaine craves. The problem is that he is the “King” of Milam Junior High and she’s only a lowly peasant, albeit not on the lowest rung in the social hierarchy. She is happy this January because she has a new best friend who shouldn’t really care about her but because of the tornado, DeLaine has been tossed into the stratosphere of the beautiful Bailey Rains. She and Bailey find themselves getting closer as they walk home from Samson High School every day and Bailey takes a genuine interest in helping DeLaine find her voice and realize her beauty. Find out what new adventures wait for DeLaine in the last half of 7th grade. See what new things she finds out about friendship, love, sex, loss and grace.

SaDonna Rogers grew up in Wichita Falls, TX until she was 14 years old. She traveled the country with her parents’ band until she was 6 years old and began first grade. She moved to Corpus Christi, TX when she was 14, the summer before she began high school in 1981. She has lived in several regions of Texas and now calls the historical town of Goliad, TX, home. Her son is in the US Army; she has a grandson and granddaughter. An advocate of pet rescue, SaDonna owns several dogs and cats, all of which found their way to her home in the country. Inspired by having survived the tornado of Terrible Tuesday, April 10, 1979 in Wichita Falls, SaDonna wrote a fictional story of love, loss, grace and redemption. In 1980 her best friend planted the idea of DeLaine’s story in her mind. Married shortly after graduating from high school in 1985 and divorced since 1991, SaDonna put her dreams of writing a novel to rest. Finally, in 2012 DeLaine’s story was ready to be told. SaDonna wanted to write a story to inspire people of all ages to find their voice and their own inner beauty.
