of Anna K. Scotti
Description
Candy is a tough-talking California teen with a rough home life. A sarcastic stranger, Carlos, arrives to stay with the janitorâs family in Candyâs apartment building, forcing her back to the land of the living. Bear is a sweet-tempered giant of a dog, once a beloved family pet, now a junkyard dogârenamed Big and Badâwho finds himself sold to a fighting ring.Candyâs romance with Carlos provides a sweet counterpoint to the chaos she faces every day. Candy is directionless, but Carlosâ ambition and determination inspire her, and his aunt and cousins give Candy a taste of normal family life her father canât provide. Candyâs and Bearâs stories intertwine only incidentally, until Candy is forced to realize that her once beloved father is not only incapable of caring for her, but is involved in the hideous business of dog fighting. Unable to rely on anyone around her, Candy faces the truth and does her best to rescue the big dog she once delivered into evil hands.
