Raina's Story

Raina is happy that her friends Kathleen and Holly have found volunteering at Parker-Sloan General Hospital rewarding. They loved their summer at the hospital so much, they will go on working there for credit during their junior year.

Raina is also looking forward to spending as much time as possible with Hunter during their last year of high school together. Kathleen is still dating Carson, but they're at different schools, and she's worried it won't last. And poor Holly is still waiting for her parents to let up on their rules so she can actually go out on a date.

Everything is going well until Raina's old boyfriend, Tony, shows up and threatens to ruin the thing that matters to Raina the most—her relationship with Hunter. But Raina isn't the only one with something to hide. When Raina's mother reveals her family secret, Raina feels betrayed. Luckily, she has Holly and Kathleen to lean on.
