The Long Night of Leo and Bree


This story starts off with two complete strangers and their stories. Leo is a senior in High School with a lot on his mind. It's the 4-year anniversary of the murder of his sister and his mom isn't handling it well. Things fell apart when his sister was murdered and they never quite got back to normal. Leo's mother insists it's his fault she was murdered that night. One word leads to another and his mothers craziness rubs off on him. Not wanting any more to happen he leaves. Bree is also a senior in High School, she feels pressure from family and her boyfriend to do things they want her to. Fed up with people telling her what to do, Bree decides to do something for herself. A night out on the town is just what she needs. What she never thought was this "night on the town" would turn into a night she'll remember forever. Leo and Bree's night's combine, Leo still crazed from his fight with his mom thinks he needs to make up for his sisters death with another persons life. This person would be Bree. What starts out to be murder ends to be one person helping another. Bree helps Leo get over his sisters death and live his life. Bree realizes there's more to life than school and making others happy.
This book is a fantastic short read. It has just enough detail to make you never want to stop reading!
