Everything That Makes You
Ever wonder "What if?" Everything That Makes You is a romantic, epic story about one girl and her two possible lives after an accident changes her fate.
Fiona Doyle's face was horribly scarred as a child. She writes about her frustrations and dreams in notebooks, penning song lyrics. But she'd never be brave enough to sing those songs in public. Fi Doyle never had an accident. She's the best lacrosse player in the state and can't be distracted by her friend who wants to be more than that. But then her luck on the field goes south.
Alternating chapters between Fiona and Fi tell two stories about the same girl hopes and dreams and crushes, fears and failures and loss. This beautifully written realistic contemporary novel with a twist is perfect for fans of If I Stay by Gayle Forman and Before I Fall by Lauren Oliver."

Moriah McStay attended Northwestern University and the University of Chicago. Two graduate degrees and seven jobs later, she's finally figured out what she wants to be when she grows up. Now she lives in Memphis, Tennessee, with her husband and three daughters. She's happy with all the choices and chances that brought her there.
Everything That Makes You is her first novel for teens, and she's probably at home right now working on another one.
