Overview

Pretty, popular, Eva is like any other sixteen-year-old. That is until her Dad dies and suddenly her whole world seems to be falling apart. The only person she can really talk to is Zac, the new guy in school, who somehow always seems to know the right thing to say. But cute, scruffy, guitar-mad, Zac has his own problems. To his buddies down the golf club, Zac's father is an all-round nice guy, but at home Zac and his mother see a different side. When Eva starts dating Killian Laine, resident rubgy hero, Zac realises that he feels more than just friendship for Eva, but can only watch from a distance as Eva and Killian become the new 'hot' couple in the gang. When Killian tries to pressure Eva into something she isn't ready for and she refuses to do what he wants, he soon shows his true colours. Eva quickly realises that true friends allow you to be yourself and that true love doesn't come with conditions . . .

Reviews

'An accomplished debut novel that will be thoroughly enjoyed by tennagers while the rest of us can enjoy the innocence, although some less clued-in parents may find it a bit of an eye-opener' -- Irish Independent 20060805 'A love story for the text generation' -- Irish Examiner 20060819 'Ireland's newest publishing sensation' -- Irish Daily Mail 20060817 'Reads like the love child between Cecelia Ahern and Ross O'Carroll Kelly' -- Irish Independent 20060805 'A love story for Generation Text' -- The Irish Times 20060801 'Owes much to Judy Blume... but while Blume produced hers as an adult, Ruth Gilligan at 18 is still a teen herself. Arguably this results in a greater understanding of her young characters...' -- Metro 20060726 'An old-fashioned teenage romance' -- Sunday Tribune/Sunday Times 20060801 'a romantic, witty tale' -- RTE Guide 20070203


Author Information

Born and raised in Blackrock, Co Dublin, Ruth Gilligan attended St. Andrew's College and earned a stunning 8 A1s in Leaving Certificate. She has been accepted to read English at Cambridge. Having spent almost twelve years in the Betty Ann Norton Theatre School, Ruth has acted in various plays, short films and adverts, but her biggest role to date was as 'Laura' in Ireland's national soap opera Fair City.

Ruth also likes to write and record her own songs, some of which feature in her first novel Forget. Ruth also plays an active role in the Model United Nations, travelling to both The Hague and London to attend international conferences. Forget reached number one in the Irish bestseller charts.
