Amazon.com Review
It's hard to be the new girl in town. The other kids tease Diedre--calling her Yankee, making fun of her flat chest, letting her know that she'll never fit in. Diedre feels alone and miserable ... until she meets Johnny. They call him Johnny Voodoo, and he casts quite a spell on Diedre. In her first novel, Dakota Lane brews a complicated, surprising tale of the love that grows between these two characters. Mature readers will appreciate the unpredictable turns in the story and the insight the author uses to explore how love changes over time.
