About Finding Favor
In the eight years since seventeen-year-old
Favor Miller's father died, she’s had to endure her reluctant,
self-righteous guardians the Browns. Every day for eight years, they've reminded
her that she doesn’t fit in, that she’s not one of them. Every day for eight
years, she's eagerly awaited the day when she'll finally be free to live her
life her way.
On the eve of high school graduation, Mr.
Brown ambushes Favor with the offer of college funding and a to-die-for summer
internship--with the one stipulation that she must discontinue her
friendship with his son, Ethan.
Accustomed as she is to sharing everything
with her best friend, this is one secret Favor must keep in order to protect
Ethan. The distraction of his new girlfriend, her growing friendship with
his older brother, and her need to understand her family history, add in
further complications.
As Favor debates signing the contract, she
must decide if she’s willing to give up her best friend in order to pursue her
dreams. Will she have to stay in the place she's so desperately wanted to
escape in order to make the right decision and get what she really needs?
About Lana Long
As a devoted fan of young adult novels
herself, Lana Long is thrilled to be gracing the YA world with her first novel,
Finding Favor. Many years of
daydreaming and several writing classes and workshops have contributed to the
development of Finding Favor as well
as to her inevitable future books. Through her experiences at Lighthouse
Writers in Denver, the Big Sur Writing Workshop in California, and the Rocky
Mountain Fiction Writers Colorado Gold Conference, she has learned an amazing
amount about writing novels.
Although writing serves as a relaxing
process, Lana is also grounded by her family, by her work as a church
treasurer, and by volunteering at her kids’ elementary school.
She hopes that her books provide readers with
the same entertainment she herself finds in YA novels. If you enjoy a good
coming-of-age story featuring enthralling characters, check out Finding Favor and read more of Lana’s
