Stealing Heaven

In the book Stealing Heaven, Danielle (18) and her mother go from state to state stealing to survive. In one chapter Danielle is at a grocery store getting couhg medicine for her mother (buying, not stealing it). At the store she bumps into Greg, a police officer. They chat and Greg ends up asking her to go on a ferry ride with him. Danielle thinks that Greg is cute, but is it worth risking having him learn who she is and what she does? Should Danielle go on the ride....would you?

no she should not go on a ride on the ferry with the cop. She should not because she might get her and her mom in trouble cause the police officer might put them in jail

I would not go on the ferry ride. So what if you like the guy? You're a thief, and he's a cop. Would a cat go on a ferry ride with a dog? I wouldn't go because it draws him closer to the family, making it easier for someone to "Spill the Beans" and reveal that they are theives.

I wouldn't go on the ferry ride with the cop. Its one of those things that you want to do really bad, but when you do it, there are consequences. Also, she has no idea if the cop is trying to trap her. This sounds like the type of book where they go on the ferry ride together, fall in love, and then the cop ends up helping her, so im going to guess that they will go on the ferry ride. But if i were in her position, i wouldnt go.

I personally wouldn't go with the guy if I were her. If she is a thief then why be stuck in the middle and choosing your lifestyle and some guy? No guy is worth in what you believe in. Even if she doesn't think stealing is good the guy will resent her since being a thief and him being a police officer kind of makes it impossible for them to actually have a relationship. I would forget about the ferry ride and just slip out of the store fast.

she should not go with him on the feryy she is practiacally giving her family awy for a guy...selfish choice

No she shouldn't. She would be putting her and her mom in too much danger when she could just find another guy whos not a cop

I wouldn't go for the ride because if my seceret was found out then we no longer would be able to thrive what little my family had. Plus going on the fairy might be a trap like what Maggie, said to have her confess her seceret.

Ummm no way what if this guy is a creeper and is like stalking her or even like what maggie and Charlie said having to confresse her secrat she would get arested and so would her mom and that would be the dumbest thing ever to go with him cause she would be really mad at herself for not just walking out of the store if she gets cought.
