Francine Paula Pascal was an American author best known for her Sweet Valley series of young adult novels. Sweet Valley High, the backbone of the collection, was made into a television series, which led to several spin-offs, including The Unicorn Club and Sweet Valley University. Although most of these books were published in the 1980s and 1990s, they remained so popular that several titles were re-released decades later.

This series is awful and totally boring . Caitlin is no hero. She caused a little boys accident and then had the gall to make herself the matry by helping Ian and Diana just to make herself feel better .

After Sweet Valley High came the Caitlin trilogy, followed a few more books; I think I bought most of them in the States, and read this sometime in 1987 to 89, I think. The Caitlin series were a bit more daring the SVH books, just a bit. Think PG-13.

Breathlessly written (and I mean that in a negative way) and littered with plot contrivances, this entry in the continuing saga of Caitlin Ryan is weaker than the first.

A letter accidentally discovered by Jed discloses a dreaded secret; Caitlin magically cures a girl of anorexia; a doctor with whom Caitlin works turns out to be her long-lost father. 100% soap opera from the dialogue to the settings.

Nothing says "true love lost" like a boyfriend who attempts to date rape his girlfriend as revenge. Ah, angst....

This was the second installment in the Caitlyn series. In this book, after Jed breaks up with her by attempting to date rape her at the prom, Caitlyn pretends to be someone else in order to do volunteer work at a hospital to save a girl she has wronged. In the process, she also meets the father her grandmother has lied to her about for so many years.
