The Midnight Twins
“He understood entirely.
Finally, a rumor came along more alluring than the fire—about Christina Pell, a junior at Ridgeline Memorial, whose grandfather owned both the town banks. Christina came back late from Christmas break not because she had a serious case of flu but because of a more disgusting reason involving you-know-what.
It grabbed everyone’s attention.
Mallory was sorry for Christina, but what an idiot! Still, at least no one talked about her or Merry anymore. But Mallory ...still didn’t feel like herself, and hard as she tried, she couldn’t act like her old self, either.
