(4) YA Unhappy at home, seventeen-year-old Maxine convinces her boyfriend, Brian, that they should fake a pregnancy and get married. But soon Brian is involved with someone else, the couple separates, and Maxine ends up caring for Brian's troubled cousin. Family issues aside, not much happens in the overstuffed plot. Still, Maxine does mature in realizing she and Brian weren't ready to take the plunge.
