Embracing You, Embracing Me - A Coming of Age Romance (Fingerpress Life Stories)

Read Embracing You, Embracing Me - A Coming of Age Romance (Fingerpress Life Stories) Storyline:

The 90s - home of boy bands, individualism, teenage angst, ultra skinny models, and "Whatever!"...
In a decade when image matters, when the so-called Generation X is
swelling with 'future perfect' hopes and pride, 16-year-old Roshell
McRady dances her way through High School, never quite admitting that
she's ashamed of her trailer park family home. Meanwhile she listens to
Madonna while conjuring creative Top Ramen recipes to feed her younger
cousins; she empties enough hairspray until her bangs are feathered and
vertical like a lethal weapon; and she agonises over how to convince
Gabriel Harrison, the new Mystery Guy in town, to invite her to the prom
- a night which threatens to turn into a disaster.
But then life takes a dramatic turn for Roshell, and her life changes forever.
A love story emerges from the anguish of Roshell's life, and when she
leaves school and finds work at a casino, things don't get any less
complicated for her - until one night a powerful dream marks out the
exact path that she must take.Embracing You, Embracing Me is unmistakeably a product of the
90s, sassy and evocative without being nostalgic. For teenagers in 2011,
it's a springboard into a vivacious past of not so long ago.
