"For shy, stuttering Melissa, the wild mountain girl named Sweetie is a symbol of pride and strength. But to many in their Appalachian town Sweetie is an outcast, a sinister influence, or worse. This poignant and haunting story takes readers deep inside the bittersweet heart of childhood loyalities."--Page 4 of cover.

This has been in my e-book “stack” for quite a while, waiting to be read. I honestly wish I had read it sooner. Being a recent transplant to Maggie Valley in Haywood County (June 2010), I have found more information about my new home in two days of reading than I have in almost 2 years.
Story, characterization and dialogue are excellent and will hold your attention, leaving you wanting more when you reach the final page.
I heartily recommend Ms. Magendie's “Sweetie” to one and all, and look forward to reading her other works in the near future.
