About This Book
A parent might reach for this book when their teenager is starting to explore the dating world and needs a cautionary, engaging way to discuss personal safety and the importance of trusting one's gut. It serves as a bridge for conversations about setting boundaries and recognizing 'red flags' in new relationships. The story follows Chelsea, a girl thrilled to be dating the new guy in town, only to find herself caught in a web of mystery and potential danger. While it is a suspenseful thriller, the core emotional themes revolve around anxiety, the pressure to be liked, and the courage required to stand up for oneself when a situation feels wrong. It is a quintessential 90s teen horror that balances entertainment with a grounded lesson on intuition.
