My Heartbeat - Softcover
A fast and furious novel about sex, love and the courage to live. Ellen loves Link and James. Her older brother and his best friend are the only company she wants. She idolises Link, the maths genius and track star. And she's totally, madly in love with James, his face full of long eyelashes and hidden smiles. She knows she will never grow out of it. Until someone at school asks if Link and James might be in love with each other. A simple question. But the consequences overturn everything Ellen has ever believed and threaten to tear apart the family she thought she knew.

About the Author:
Garret Freymann-Weyr grew up in New York City with three sisters and two excessively interesting parents. She now lives in Baltimore, USA with her husband, who plays the piano every night. Her first young adult novel, When I Was Older, received rave reviews in America.
From AudioFile:
When three characters are closely linked in a story, it's imperative that the narrator select unique voices for each person. My Heartbeat is a love triangle, delicately unfolded by young Ellen, who adores her older brother, Link, and falls from puppy love into intimate love with Link's best friend, James. Yet high school rumor has it that James and Link used to be more than friends. As Ellen tries to figure out all the relationships in her life, she comes to realize that sometimes you just can't know everything about a person. Christy Carlson Romano is a tender Ellen-changing from a sweet naïf to a mature young woman while never losing her thoughtful introspection. Unfortunately, it's hard to distinguish Ellen's inner thoughts from Link's and James's when voice changes are too subtle. M.M.O.
