Dahlia Watts is your normal seventeen-year-old girl...with a huge secret. She has a loving boyfriend, Lewis Brent, who is part of the enemy's family. For years, Dahlia's family has been competing with them. Their parents compete in business and appearance; Dahlia's sort-of-step- brother, Drew, plays against Lewis on the football team; even their schools are rivals.
When it rains, Dahlia and Lewis are nowhere to be found. No one knows that they are together, no one knows where they are. 
They are deeply in love, but recently Dahlia has become fascinated with the school's player, and her sort-of-step-brother, Drew. Dahlia is falling out of love with Lewis, and now she can't call her heart her own.
But the person she loves can't claim her heart. So who can?

Dahlia's childhood is shaped by love, loss, and self-discovery. Growing up in a once-happy home, she bonds deeply with her father, Bumpy, while facing the emotional turbulence of her mother, Akosa. From an early age, Dahlia realizes she's different-not just in her intelligence but in her emotions. Her first crush, Keziah, leaves her questioning herself when Keziah moves away. As she navigates adolescence, Dahlia witnesses the unraveling of her parents' marriage. Akosa brings men into their home, leading to an unexpected pregnancy. When the child is born, a DNA test confirms what Bumpy feared-the baby isn't his. Despite the betrayal, he raises the child as his own. Meanwhile, Dahlia is diagnosed with a heart condition, adding another layer of struggle to her already complicated life. Amidst the chaos, Dahlia and her siblings, Lucky and Talia, find solace in their bond. They transfer to an international school in Nakuru, but tragedy strikes when Lucky is killed in a road accident. Overwhelmed by grief, Dahlia and Talia relocate to their aunt's house in Mumias while their father remains in Eldoret. Life moves forward, the young child their mother left behind grows, and eventually, Dahlia completes high school and gets a boyfriend. Still undergoing treatment for her heart condition, Dahlia's life takes another turn when Bumpy, now focusing on his career, travels to Australia for business seminars. Dahlia and Talia enroll in separate universities, but Dahlia transfers to be closer to family. Meanwhile, Akosa has long since left for the USA. Years later, as Dahlia's uncle graduates in Nairobi, the family reunites, and fate brings an unexpected closure. Her father, Bumpy, returns from Australia, and in a twist of fate, meets a new woman-marking a fresh start after years of pain and endurance
