Description: For most of her life, music has been eighteen-year-old Samantha Becker's only expressive outlet against her dysfunctional family. But when her fathers' careless actions lead to an “accident,” Sam’s ability to play the guitar dies along with her dreams of attending Juilliard.
Just when Sam has given up, a budding friendship and an unexpected love force her to evaluate all she's ever known. Armed with a new-found confidence, Sam battles her father’s plans for her future, band mates using her for personal gain, and a permanent injury. But will it be enough? Julliard auditions are almost here. Time's running out, and Sam must re-learn to play the guitar or give up her dreams forever.

Reviews: "From that first paragraph I was drawn into the world of eighteen year old Sam (Samantha) Becker. Her dysfunctional family (an alcoholic mother and a tyrannical father) has left deep scars and Sam has built a wall around herself, keeping everybody at a distance emotionally. The one thing she has held dear; the one thing that has comforted her through grief, loneliness, confusion and anger is her guitar. Playing it has given her solace, carried her away from her tumultuous world and fostered a dream of a new future."
