College Student Melanie Jett Pens THE CLEARING

By:

Nearly 60 percent of all young women have experienced abuse of some sort. Rather than seeking help, more often than not it will be a friend who is chosen as a confidant rather than any sort of guardian.

What responsibility does this confidant now carry in the welfare of their friend?

In Melanie Jett's new book, "The Clearing", readers will discover a story of one girl and two boys. It might seem like the usual teenage dilemma, but Jett gets to the heart of serious relatable matters.

"This is a novel about teenagers and dating, and it is written from a teenagers perspective," Jett said. "My hope is that those who read will get a better understanding of how to help those enduring abuse."
