Shaylei Curtis (Shay for short) was never in the spotlight. Younger sister to Darry Curtis (a high school football star), twin sister to Sodapop Curtis (the best looking boy any girl could ever hope to meet), and older sister to Ponyboy Curtis (one of the smartest kids in his grade), Shay always struggled to make a name for herself in a town where status is everything. It seemed that her golden opportunity had arrived when she was awarded a scholarship to New York's finest dance academy, a place where she was judged not by her financial status, but by the quality of her talent. Now, four months after her parents' deaths, Shay has returned home to face her brothers, their Gang of friends, and the truth about the life she left behind.
*I own nothing other than Shay's character. All other credit goes to the fabulous S.E. Hinton
*While this book is set during the same time frame as the original book/movie, I will be pulling in several modern day references. Sorry if that confuses anyone. It's just kind of how I imagined everything.
