Product Description
From the Back Cover
Hi. I'm Rachel. I'm fifteen.
When we moved house (Dad's idea), I was so dreading starting my new school. Turns out, that was the least of my worries. Within weeks I'd:
1. Fallen out with my new best friend.
2. Found out I was adopted and
3. Figured out my parents were keeping something from me. (Apart from me being adopted, that is.)
Turns out my whole life was a lie and I'd got to figure out the truth. I was like, a total wreck! The only good thing was Luke.
Anyway, if you're interested, you can find out about Luke and all our Family Secrets inside.

I loved this book, and I read it in one sitting because I couldn't put it down!
You feel sorry for Rachel at the start, because she just found out she was adopted, and she found out from her school bully, but then you feel angry towards her parents because you just know they're keeping another secret, but you don't know what!
So then it turns into every teens idea of fun, to go off on an adventure with a handsome male sidekick to be independant and uncover the truth for yourself, but maybe the truth isn't so great when you find out?
Great first book in the Rachel trilogy, a really good read :)
