Ever confident in her choices and blessed with a trenchant narrative voice, Taylor makes for an engaging, strikingly unsentimental portrait of a teen girl facing tragedy head-on. She can’t help but wonder if this is all her fault-did she swerve? Did she have a death wish? She can’t remember, but the process to finding out what really happened, and who Scott really was, grows increasingly complicated each day he doesn’t wake up. Now Taylor waits at his bedside, still undecided about the baby and with a secret engagement ring in her pocket. Tragically, on the way back, their snowmobile crashes, leaving Scott with a fractured skull, lost in a coma. Disturbed by his response, she decides to break up with him, but he whisks her away to their favorite little snowy island in northern Minnesota and surprises her with a proposal that she can’t bring herself to turn down. Distraught, she considers suicide, but when she confides in Scott, he reprimands her for her selfishness. Everything seems fine, though, until Taylor discovers she’s pregnant. High school sweethearts Taylor and Scott grow distant after he moves away to attend college. After a snowmobile accident leaves her boyfriend in a coma, a girl must confront her memories before she can make a life-altering decision.
