In my book "kissed by an angel" finally we see that tristan has personally met ivy. At first he thinks she really is not into him but then we she asked him for swimming lessons, he realizes that he might have a good shot with her. Ivy has these angel that she prays to when she has a fear. For example she can't swim because of a drowning incident that happened when she was little and never went back in a pool or lake after that. Every time she fears about drowning she pray to her "water angel" to keep her safe. Tristan is the top swimmer in his school and so she trust him that he will keep her safe. Ivy's mom has now married Gregory's dad and now all of them live together in a huge house. Ivy's mom is having a hard time cheering up her son Philip. He is in elementary school and will not talk to anyone because he is so upset about moving, they even have to get rid of their cat ella. One day while they were eating dinner the police showed up and informed the family that Gregory's mother had committed suicide. The family gets very upset and especially Gregory takes it the hardest.
