1 part Complete MatureBrooklyn Brown was the picture of a small-town American girl-raised in a strict religious household by her father, the town's priest. She's always been taught what's right, what's wrong, and who fits into that narrow idea of "normal." According to him, being gay is a sin... and being Black? Unnatural.
Then the Keita family moves into town.
Amani Keita is used to starting over. Every move feels the same: new school, same looks, same whispers. Being the only Black teenager in a close-minded, overwhelmingly white town is nothing new-but that doesn't make it any easier. Especially when the loudest voice of intolerance wears a white collar.
Brooklyn doesn't expect to talk to Amani, let alone feel drawn to him. But something about him challenges what she's always been told. And maybe, just maybe, the world isn't as black and white as her father says it is.
Can Brooklyn unlearn the beliefs she was raised on-and let herself see Amani for who he truly is? Or will fear and loyalty keep her trapped in someone else's version of truth?
