Stay Twila Vernon

Stay explores the other 'tween stage, the transition into the twenties, and the complexities of being torn between two men. Desperate to escape her chaotic family life, Shay is betwixt and between two men: one who offers the predictable life she craves, while the other encourages the scary prospect of independence. This contemporary novel, set in the 90's, delves into the disturbing complications of a relationship's camouflaged demeanor against true intimacy. It illustrates the contrast between wants and needs, expectations and realities, and the fears one must overcome to experience the best of what life has to offer. The epilogue fast forwards to a generation later, showing that although times change, human psychology does not! It all ties up to a heart-stirring, unforgettable ending. Will she stay with the man who loves her, or go back to the man she loves? They both want her to Stay.
