Product Description:
She was my first kiss. My first love. She was a little match girl who could see the future in the flame of a candle. She was a runaway who taught me more about life than anyone has before or since. And when she was gone my innocence left with her.

As I begin to write, a part of me feels as if I am awakening something best left dead and buried, or at least buried. We can bury the past, but it never really dies. The experience of that winter has grown on my soul like ivy climbing the outside of a home, growing until it begins to tear and tug at the brick and mortar.

I pray I can still get the story right. My memory, like my eyesight, has waned with age. Still, there are things that become clearer to me as I grow older. This much I know: too many things were kept secret in those days. Things that never should have been hidden. And things that should have.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - More Complex Than A Simple Juvenile Story
There are tough issues dealt with here, making it more complex than a juvenile book.

Young Eric meets Grace as she's in a dumpster foraging for food. Through most of the story it isn't clear why she ran away from home other than she isn't crazy about her step father. Unbeknownst to his parents, she is now staying in a fort in Eric's yard made by him and his 10-year old brother, Joel. Eric sneaks food to her and buys her a space heater to keep her warm in her "new" home.
