A teenager’s stand against drugs within a family marked by addiction and incarceration

Set against the pressures surrounding fifteen-year-old Savanna Peterson, the book centers on a young person refusing an expected path when drug use is embedded in her family life. Savanna’s decision unfolds amid an older brother’s parties, police attention on the household, and a father incarcerated for drug-related crimes. The premise frames drug use not as an isolated teenage choice but as a force shaping family expectations, home life, and the possibility of drawing personal boundaries. It offers a teen-focused story about resilience and resisting harmful patterns close to home.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in teen stories about substance use and family pressure
  • Parents and caregivers seeking fiction that opens discussion about drugs
  • Readers drawn to narratives of personal boundaries and resilience
