The last chance . . .

Sally Larson is thrilled when she moves in with her cousin Dana's family. After five years of living in foster homes, Sally longs to have a real home, and she's determined to make a good impression.
As long as Sally let's Dana control her life, she feels she'll be accepted. After all, her cousin is pretty, popular, and the lead singer for The Droids, Sweet Valley High's smash rock band. Sally even hopes to overcome the resentment of Dana's brother, Jeremy. But when Dana begins to resent her, too, Sally's afraid she'll have to leave - and she knows this is her last chance to make a life for herself. Will Sally ever be able to call Sweet Valley home?

"You know," Sally said, "this is so incredibly different from, well - " She broke off, searching for the right words. She faced Dana with a look of wonder on her face. "I've never lived in such a nice place before."
"Listen, forget about it, OK?" Dana said. "You live with us now, so you don't have to think about your old life. You can just pretend it never happened, right?" She paused, looking carefully at her cousin's face. "Right?" she insisted.
A lok of suprise crossed Sally's features. "Oh, sure, I'll just try to forget about it."
Behind Sally's back, Dana scowled. She was concentrating on creating a new Sally, but Sally insisted on bringing up the past. "Listen, I really think you should think about the future," said Dana.
She looked intetnly in Sally's face, searching for signs of agreement. After a moment, Sally dropped her eyes to her lap and nodded. "If you say so, Dana."
