Lock and Key, by Sarah Dessen, was very similar to her other novels. The main character is high school senior Ruby, whose mother abandons her. Ruby tries living by herself, working her mother's delivery job and taking care of herself. This works for a while, but she is eventually found out and sent to live with her estranged sister, Cora. This is awkward at first not only for Ruby, but also for Cora and her husband, Jaime. However, Jaime and Cora turn out to be loving, caring people, and Ruby soon learns to trust and love them both. I just wish that every troubled teen's problems could be solved as neatly as Ruby's!
