About the author

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.

You already know the ending since the story of Nick and Anna is told in flashback, but it's still fun to discover the details.

Interesting story of love and loss, and how the author dealt with that loss. Billed as fiction, although much of the story is reportedly based on real events.
