A heart-wrenching novel about a sixteen-year-old girl trapped in an abusive relationship--and the path she takes to freedom and happiness, from award-winning author Heather Demetrios.

"Like Speak, it is one of those rare books that can have a real, lasting impact on readers, and can start important conversations." --Adi Alsaid, author of Let's Get Lost and Never Always Sometimes

Grace wants out. Out of her house, where her stepfather wields fear like a weapon and her mother makes her scrub imaginary dirt off the floors. Out of her California town, too small to contain her big city dreams. Out of her life, and into the role of Parisian artist, New York director--anything but scared and alone.

Enter Gavin: charming, talented, adored. Controlling. Dangerous. When Grace and Gavin fall in love, Grace is sure it's too good to be true. She has no idea their relationship will become a prison she's unable to escape.

A deeply affecting and unflinchingly honest portrayal of a destructive relationship, Bad Romance is a young adult novel about spiraling into darkness--and emerging into the light again.

Praise for Bad Romance

"Like Speak, it is one of those rare books that can have a real, lasting impact on readers, and can start important conversations." --Adi Alsaid, author of Let's Get Lost and Never Always Sometimes

"A raw, honest, unrelenting novel. Demetrios writes with heartbreaking clarity about the way first love can turn from safe to dangerous, from beautiful to ugly. Brave, bold, and deeply felt." --Corey Ann Haydu, author of OCD Love Story and The Careful Undressing of Love

" A]n intense reflection on abusive relationships." --Publishers Weekly

"A realistic, worthwhile look at dating violence." --Kirkus Reviews

"Through Grace's lively, engaging voice, readers gain a vivid picture of the way a smart, self-assured girl can fall into an abusive relationship . . . . Demetrios' well-drawn characters are tremendously appealing, and Grace's discovery of the power of her own strength will make readers cheer." --Booklist

Step In Look Good
Size: 11.5, Color: Cognac Napa Leather
I am wearing these shoes as I write this review, and they look and feel great. I have a bit of a disability with drop foot on the right leg and bilateral neuropathy and have been wearing step in shoes for about 10 years. But the first company that introduced leather dress and casual shoes stopped making them and now only makes sport and casual shoes. So I have been searching for some that meet my need for shoes like this and this company has given me three pairs, so far. Easy to get into, comfortable to wear, and good looking. And they take polish very well, too. (Remember how to do that?). We may buy another pair or two in different styles as well.

Comfy and lots of support. Cushiony. Beware: the brown I ordered runs small. Tighter than other brands.
