Chapter Summaries & Analyses

Chapter 26 Summary

Ian narrates that he waited a week to call Jenna after that first date. He sets up another date, but she says she is busy—her friend broke up with her boyfriend and they are going to have a girls’ night at the Ice Bar. He knows the game, though, and mentions that it’s too bad because he has tickets to see the band Pulp. She says she’s free the following night, but he says he has plans and hangs up.

 

To test her truthfulness, he goes to the Ice Bar and finds her there. He goes to her, making up a story about bumping into a friend whom he now can’t find. Sarah, Jenna’s friend, now seems to be busy with a guy, so he invites Jenna to his place. At the house, Ian makes coffee and they begin to make out. Jenna tells him to slow down, but Ian tells her, “You’re so gorgeous—I can’t help myself” (240).

Chapter 27 Summary

Jenna is out on bail. She has managed to elude Ray and Kate’s pointed questions again. She hadn’t expected to be released but is relieved. As she travels home, she sees news of her case on the Bristol Post, but her name is not mentioned.
