Four teenage girls who are friends get together and form a pregnancy pact. Their mothers are questioned and brought onto the carpet in their small town for "letting" this happen to their daughters, one mother in particular the main character, Susan Tate who is also the principal of the high school bears the ridicule and brunt much more than the other mothers do.
The story was part campy, part political, and part moral based with a nicely tied up happy ending. Overall it was just alright, glad for the happy ending, not sure I'd rave over Delinsky as an author though. Perhaps if I get to pick up another work by her in the distant future it might be better.
