Publisher's Synopsis
"She was never given a choice. In her world, women had to follow traditions without question. Forced circumcision marked the beginning of her suffering, followed by an arranged marriage to a man old enough to be her father. Yet, in her heart, there was love-genuine, deep love-that her tribe would never allow.
This gripping novel tells the emotional journey of a woman fighting against cultural oppression. It is a tale of survival, resilience, and the unwavering courage to reclaim one's life. A powerful and inspiring story about breaking free from the chains of tradition and finding the strength to build a future on her own terms." "This story is inspired by the silent struggles I've witnessed and the resilience, I've admired in many women.it is not my personal story, but it is one I felt needed to be told."
