Saundra Staats McLemore

For the Love of Ali Saundra Staats McLemore

Hayley later realizes it wasn't a typical summer romance, especially for an innocent teenage girl.

Hayley's been accepted at the University of Oregon and plans a career of teaching Down syndrome and autistic children. Her Christian parents own the inn where the wealthy Wentworth family has checked in for the summer. The younger son, Chase, is a bored, perpetual playboy.

Chase targets Hayley, wooing her with gifts and words of love. Naive Hayley falls hopelessly in love with Chase and doesn't realize she's only a summer diversion until it's too late. The unfortunate romance, producing a child, has turned all her dreams upside down. She's now ashamed, shunned by her father, and turns from God.
