Product description
The lives of two very different teenage girls become literally connected after one unexpectedly dies, and the other receives her heart.
Fourteen-year-old Amanda is a competitive gymnast, sleek-muscled and in perfect health. Fifteen-year-old Dani was born with her heart on the wrong side of her body; she’s been in and out of hospital all her life. The two girls don’t know each other – and never will. Yet their lives are about to collide. When Amanda suffers a blood clot and dies during a gym competition, the donation of her heart means renewed life for Dani and several other donor recipients… A fascinating and unusual story on an important and topical issue.
“Detailed, accurate descriptions of medical procedures are leavened with humor and sincerity, providing a powerful and multifaceted exploration of ethics, love and celebration of life.” Kirkus Reviews
“Showing teens confronting unexpected emotions in both themselves and others, this novel is sure to please fans of realistic but gentle teen romance or medical stories.” Booklist
