THEN
In the summer before her senior year, Samantha Morgan has a seemingly perfect life. Head cheerleader, student body president, and following in the footsteps of her politician father, Samantha has a lot going for her. Not to mention her super hot boyfriend, three best friends, and almost guaranteed acceptance to Duke next fall.
NOW
Dirty, raped, and terribly afraid, Samantha is forced to attend a support group and get a move on with her life. But in a world where boys may or may not be approaching her out of sympathy, where her best friends stray away, and where her parents are more focused on the upcoming election than her well-being, can Samantha learn that not everyone is as they seem?
A story of betrayal, forgiveness, friendships, and the possibility of love when nothing seems to be going right, 'This Is Now' will certainly exceed your expectations.
