BUMP

Anna Carroll

Bree is pregnant and must decide if she's ready for motherhood. BUMP is Judy Blume meets Footloose with a touch of Secret Life.


Sophomore, Brianne McGraw, can’t believe her luck when the star goalkeeper of the senior class asks her out. Jake seems too good to be true: brains, brawn, and natural charm wrapped up in a letterman’s jacket. Defying her upbringing and her better judgment, Bree lies to her parents to go out with him. After all, he loves her and true love is worth the risk.
Unfortunately for Bree, naiveté bests her. She soon discovers she’s pregnant. Now, she must decide: does she tell Jake about the baby? How long can she hide the truth from her parents? Finally, how does Bree, herself, feel about motherhood?
As her bump expands, Bree confronts several obstacles. Jake vows his support, but Bree’s parents explode. Her mother issues a crushing ultimatum: place the baby for adoption, or risk banishment from the house--permanently.
To make matters worse, complications arise which threaten the life of both mother and child. Amid the tumultuous events surrounding the delivery, Bree must make a choice. Is she ready, at fifteen, to become a mother?

James, I also liked the title. Chick lit isn't really my preferred genre, but I enjoyed the light hearted story you have here. I loved the twist on locale names and the references pertaining to the TV business. Great Job! Anna Carroll (BUMP) view book

Kim, Interesting twist for a story. Sam has a great voice- so much the teenager. I loved his thought process. I thought your writing flowed smoothly, allowing the reader to become engrossed in the story and not just the words on the page. Great job. Shelved. Anna Carroll (BUMP) view book

FJ, I thought your excerpt was charming. I love that the MC is a boy on an adventure. My boys love stories like that. I think it fosters their own imagination. I thought that Alex's narrative was true for his age and his dialogue is spot on. I think you have the makings of a great tale! Can't... view book
