An urban romance that will capture your soul, break your heart, and restore your faith in the human spiritFifteen-year-olds Cece and Mack didn't expect to fall in love. She's a sensitive A student; he's a high school dropout. But soon they're spending every moment together, bonding over a rescued dog, telling their secrets, making plans for the future. Everything is perfect. Until. Until. Mack makes a horrible mistake, and in just a few minutes, the future they'd planned becomes impossible. In this stark new reality, both of them must find meaning and hope in the memories of what they had, to survive when the person they love can't stay.From award-winning writer Paul Griffin, Stay with Me is both heartbreaking and uplifting, filled with characters (both dog and human) that will forever change the way you look at the world. "From its opening paragraph, this wonderful novel for young adults promises searing honesty and gut-wrenching heartache - and rarely has a book delivered with such desperate and terrible beauty upon its promise. A truly remarkable piece of writing that stays with the reader long after the last page has been turned." - Dani Colvin, The Sunday Tazmanian "A memorable tearjerker written with rare grace." - Cameron Woodhead, The Saturday Age "A beautifully written, emotional roller coaster of a love story that I could not put down." - Chris Lloyd, ReadPlus

This is a very fast paced story that deals with tough but real life issues. It is gritty, and I recommend for mature teens. The characters are very believable, down to earth and authentic, and even though I didn't relate a whole lot with some of their circumstances, I really felt for them and wanted...

3.5 Stars. Characterizations are great in the story. I didn't like the ending, felt like it was very abrupt and just sort of stopped in the middle of a plot. Even another chapter would have sufficed.
