But Sarah found things very different after a summer away from home. Sarah's best friend, Peggy, was no longer on the swim team and not really a best friend anymore. Sarah seeks advice from her father but daydreams while he's speaking and doesn't want to admit she missed his input. Swim practices become complicated when Sarah's mother has a slight accident and cannot assist Sarah with her long beautiful hair. School life is dull until a new student, Theresa, arrives. Life is changing. Sarah needs answers. Sarah seeks answers from the One source she was taught would always be available. Finally, Sarah is changed, and it is for God's glory that makes all the difference. Melanie Thwaites was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York.
