So Down I Fall (Paperback)

I thought about killing myself the old-fashioned way: overdosing on a handful of pills, driving my truck into a tree. But I didn't want to be buried beside my mom's empty coffin. I wanted to be with her. In the deep.

I'm Grace O'Neal, the sixteen-year-old girl who attempted suicide in the sea. If you're wondering what happened to me, I didn't die that night. Adam wouldn't let me. At first I didn't want his help. A strange new islander with no shoes and a retro haircut. Who did he think he was? My hero? But when he pushed me to accept my mom's drowning, to heal, I realized I needed a friend. I should have known someone so weird and wonderful wasn't a normal teenage guy. I should have known my complicated life was going to get a lot more complicated when I fell in love with him ... and discovered his darkest secret.
