What do you get when you take two girls and three guys with great voices and lively personalities and combine them with some good old songs like 'Boardwalk' and 'Stand by Me'? In Rexburg, Idaho, it all adds up to Fast Forward, the a cappella group that features lead singer Amber Whittaker, and the strong, supportive bass, Greg Foster. Best friends Amber and Greg exchange advice on everything best friends can - dating, music, friends, etc. In Jack Weyland's new novel, Lean on Me, Greg finds himself falling for Amber, who thinks of him only as a buddy. The best-selling author recounts the story of their relationship as they mature, perform in a popular musical group, and learn to cope with the changing dynamics in their relationship. Written in Jack Weyland's breezy and entertaining style, the novel moves quickly through time, progressing to the months following Greg's mission. Still in love with Amber, Greg finally reveals his feelings to her with an engagement ring, but she thinks it's a joke. Everything that follows is a delight in both humorous and poignant ways. Jack Weyland chalks up another winner with this lively story of young love.
