The Taming of Lilah May

by Vanessa Curtis

Lilah May is in a bad place. Out of control. In trouble at school, angry at home, furious with her best friend Bindi. The reason? Her brother Jay's disappearance two years ago. And it was all her fault. Not even Adam Carter, the hottest boy in the universe, can cheer her up.


Lilah feels isolated. She ignores Bindi's unhappiness at the prospect of an arranged marriage. She has no patience with her parents whose busy, wacky jobs leave little time for her. Jay made her feel safe. Until she found him taking drugs.


Lilah's dad can tame lions, but not his teenage daughter. Shattered families, conflicting emotions and heart-rending loss are explored in this moving book with its captivating heroine.
