Heart on My Sleeve

Front Cover

Simon and Schuster, 2004 - Juvenile Fiction - 219 pages

I'm not picking Cartwright just because I met Julian there. For all I know he'll change his mind and not even go! Although that would be a shame because I want him to be the father of my firstborn child. KIDDING! :-}

During a weekend at Cartwright College for prospective freshmen to get to know the school, Chloe meets Julian, and they hit it off. Chloe is thrilled that when she starts school in the fall, she'll have a boyfriend there. The problem is, she can't tell Eli, the boy she's sort of going with but thinks of more as a brother.

In a novel told exclusively through e-mail, instant messages, letters, notes, and postcards, award-winning author Ellen Wittlinger looks at how important communication is in regard to friendships, love, and long-distance relationships.
