The Sister Pact

Allie Blackmore, a promising art student, is about to start her junior year of high school–weeks after her older sister’s suicide. While Allie stammers that she’s “fine” to her mother, father, teachers, friends and her therapist, she’s barely keeping her head above water trying to figure out why Leah killed herself—and why she did it without her. They made a promise. They had a pact.

As secrets begin to unfold, Allie realizes Leah wasn’t as perfect she always envisioned her older sister to be. And when things begin to get sticky with her best friend, a long-time crush and new boy Nick, Allie turns to pills and self-medication to numb the pain. Not to mention how will she get past all the pain and funnel it back into her art in time to submit to her portfolio for college?

The Sister Pact by Stacie Ramey explores the intricate in’s and out’s of a sisters’ bond as the pair navigate their way through adolescence as they deal with the pains of high school drama as well as having to deal with the implications of being stuck in the middle of their parents’ unraveling marriage.
