Goodreads

Friend has written another sweet high school romance that’s perfect for both middle and high school students, since it doesn’t feature any sex (only a few innocent kisses), drugs, etc.  What IS different about this book is that both of the main characters suffer from debilitating issues that keep them from making close connections with anyone; until they find each other.  Quinn led a normal life until she started losing large clumps of her hair.  Now fully bald, she suffers from a form of alopecia.  Nick, a former star quarterback, lost both of his legs in a snowmobile accident.  While the story line itself is not groundbreaking, it’s truly refreshing to see two non-traditional characters getting their love story.
