Publisher's Synopsis
As Amina grew older, she couldn't help but wonder about the man who had left them behind. What had become of her father? Why had he chosen to leave his flesh and blood? These questions remained in her thoughts.
In secondary school, Amina was known as a diligent student. Her grades were among the best in her class, and her teachers often praised her dedication and effort. She was a good girl, always staying away from trouble. But as Amina entered her teenage years, her life began to take on new shades of complexity. The girl who was once sick and fragile had grown stronger and healthier over time. The world around her seemed to expand with each passing day. And then came Kwame. She was torn between her desire to maintain her good-girl image and her growing infatuation for Kwame. She knew her mother would disapprove of her new friendship, but the pull of Kwame's charm was irresistible, and Amina found herself making choices she never thought she would.
