But beneath their differences, an unexpected bond begins to form-one that pushes both girls to confront painful secrets, question their beliefs, and redefine what family and friendship truly mean. In this moving coming-of-age story, Hope and Faith learn that loving and losing, defiance and healing, are all part of growing up-and sometimes, the path to redemption begins where you least expect it.
