Book Review~Caring is Creepy by David Zimmerman

So not what I expected...the author took the story and ran away with it-in the opposite direction than I would've guessed.

When Lynn and her friend Dani started chatting with people online, they decided to make a game out of it. One of the main rules of the game was that they wouldn't identify their true identities. Lynn wasn't really sure why but she did give her real name to a soldier named Logan who was in hid mid-twenties while she was just about to enter high school. After Lynn and Logan met, things got a bit out of control. Logan went AWOL and ended up sneaking into Lynn's house to stay until morning when he would figure out what he was going to do. Within a few days, Lynn had him trapped in a tiny, secret  room in the back of her closet naked.

While this was all going on, Lynn's mother's boyfriend Hayes, had gotten into some trouble when he bungled up a drug deal and the guys he screwed were looking at Lynn's house for him. Lynn soon becomes tangled in her mother and Hayes mess while still trying to keep her own secret.
