Clementine does the unthinkable and breaks one of the largest best friend rules when it comes to boyfriends. Her regret serves to taint her entire summer. Her friends are ignoring her and her best friend has more than a few rude things to say to her. The boy that partially caused the whole problem has abandoned Clementine and Clementine has never felt more alone.
When her parents plan a somewhat unexpected boating trip, she doesn't want to go, but has no prospects anyway. Clementine's trip begins on a somewhat sour note punctuated by her cute younger sister who truly cares for her. She has nothing to do and no access to the Internet for long stretches of time.
When she meets "Red," she thinks nothing will come of it. Slowly, Red begins to take the form of someone who could be that "something more" for Clementine. His ridiculously positive presence literally lifts the scenes. Clementine is happy around Red, but how will he react to her terrible secret?
Clementine's character will likely remind you of any other high school girl you may have known. She is surly and unhappy in UNBREAK MY HEART, but has good cause. Her kind treatment of her sister will likely make you forgive her negative attitude.
Red is the perfect balance to Clementine's thunder clouds. His almost abnormally positive attitude hides a darker secret of his own. The two are quite the pair.
Overall, UNBREAK MY HEART is exactly what the readers expect from Melissa Walker. The boat trip is realistic and the sense of family support only adds to the story. The emotionally charged words captured, by the author, of the scorned teen girl makes UNBREAK MY HEART both believable and enjoyable.
