But when her family has to relocate to a small, rural town in the outskirts of the big city, she experiences a rude awakening about some of the people in this world. Will she survive in a place that hates her for the color of her skin, or will things take a turn for the worst?
Alexander Grayson has grown up in this town, but has always been a town outcast because his love of "urban" things doesn't match the likings of a place that hates anything "different". With only alcohol and sex used to cope with his abusive father, what might happen to Alex when he falls for Harmony? A black girl with wild hair, a beautiful personality, and a strong mind who the entire town will give anything to kill
