Just a Matter of Time

Sadie Lin: High school junior Sadie is desperate--to maintain her GPA, to score high on the SATs, for her dad to return from Afghanistan. Time seems to crawl and slip through her fingers all at once. She thinks it's all in her head.

It's not.

Gordon Bakersfield: Gordon--Sadie's ninth grade epic crush--has plenty of time and knows where to get more. He knows someone has been stealing Sadie's time. And while he's not sure how to make it stop, he's hoping to try. But can Sadie trust him?

Only time will tell.
