Barley Breathing by Rebecca Donovan

Emma's struggles with an abusive home life came to a horrible end. Now everyone in Weslyn know's Emma's secret, but Carol can't hurt her anymore. Emma and Evan are still haunted by the horror of that night, and must face the repurcussions of their choices. As Emma reconnects with her estranged mother, she discovers there is still a lot to learn about her past, and how it will affect her future.

I LOVED this book! I stumbled upon the first one accidentally, and couldn't wait to read this one. With the way this ended, I may EXPLODE if I don't get to read Out of Breath soon!!
