Doctors Don't Cry

Lara Green is a 14-years-old girl, who lives a peaceful life in Saint Louis, Missouri. She has everything, a girl could ever need; two best friends, popularity, beauty, and wisdom. She is a good girl, who goes to church every Sunday with her mom and 2 siblings. She is also the smartest student at Roosevelt High School. But not everything is as it seems. Ever since Lara's father, the best doctor in Missouri, passed away, she was recruited in the Young Doctors Association. A nation-wide, top-secret association, which recruits the smartest students in the state. For some, it's an honor to become a recruit, but for others, like Lara, it's hope. Not only is Lara practicing her medical skills, but she also works as a doctor at Select Specialty Hospital and Cardinal Glennon Hospital in St. Louis. She operates, reconstructs bones, saves lives, just like her father did. But that is the only way for her to make money, to keep the family alive. The Young Doctor Association has rules, and the first one is the most important; never treat anyone familiar. You can't be recognized, or you're out. But one day there is a terrible accident, where a 14-years-old boy gets pushed out on the road and run over by a truck, is it up to Lara, if he lives. But it's not some boy, it's Jonah Smith, her classmate, her friend, her crush. Will Lara's enemies give her trouble? Will she be able to break the rules to save her crush? Will Jonah live? And why is Lara's fathers office always locked?
