Fall for anything by Courtney Sulmmers 230 pages
Eddie Reeves has major problems accepting her famous photographer/father's suicide. It doesn't help that her mother is basically catatonic and her strident best friend moves in and becomes boss of Eddie. Also, her best friend/boyfriend(?)'s girlfriend from last summer moves back to their town and makes Eddie feel like the proverbial third wheel. Eddie's relationship has shifted a bit with Milo. He discovered her shortly after she had found her father after his suicidal jump. Milo appreciated her dad but is unable to communicate with her about that horrible day. Then Eddie meets her father's former art student, Culler Evans. Although he is 20 and a college guy, Eddie feels drawn to him. Together they set out to discover a possible last message left by her father. Summers captures the pain caused by the suicide. Eddie's search for closure feels true, but the depiction of Culler doesn't quite seem real.
