      Christian fiction but not too overbearing. Erika is 16 and is in love with Steve, who goes away to college without making a commitment to her. Heartbroken and lonely, Erika goes to a party, drinks too much, gets together with Steve's best friend Dallas, and...you get the picture. Nine months later, she is living far away and gives the baby up for adoption. Fast-forward 20 years, and the "baby" comes back into all of their lives. Tear-jerker but with some good lessons about judging others and forgiveness.
