My Review: This was a great end to the Miracle Girls series. This story focused on Riley McGee. Riley is smart and outgoing and everyone expects a lot from her, but as senior year draws to a close she becomes confused about what she wants to do with her future. Problems with her brother and the reappearance of her ex-boyfriend just add to the confusion. I liked how this book talked about difficult situations in the life of christian teenagers and that the story was not predictable. I think this is definitely a good read so check it out for yourself.

ABOUT THE BOOK



Riley McGee has the whole world open before her. She could get into any college, major in any subject, become whoever she wants to be...But the truth is, Riley has no earthly idea what to do. She's paralyzed by indecision, afraid of the changes she faces, and as graduation day inches closer, it feels more and more like a threat.



Meanwhile, her autistic brother, Michael, is struggling to fit in at Marina Vista and stay on top of his classes. Riley tries to keep an eye out for him, but when Ms. Moore suggests pulling Michael out of school, Riley has to fight for her brother--and against her favorite teacher. And things take another turn when her ex-boyfriend, Tom, arrives, hoping to give their relationship one more try. On top of that, an ambitious new pastor makes her question everything she thought she knew about faith.
