Description

Its been six months since Sarahs mom died. Three months since her dad fell apart. Sarah has left her fine arts boarding school to take care of her dad and her little brother, and now shes trying to hold everything together at home while adjusting to the local public high school.

With her dads drinking and spending getting out of control, Sarah struggles to make sure that the bills are paid, that her brother is fed and safe, that her dads grief wont crush them all. She has no time for art, unless shes cranking out a piece to sell online for some grocery money. And she definitely doesnt have the time or the emotional energy to find out if her sweet, handsome classmate, David Garza, could be more than a friend.

But then a school project prompts Sarah to delve into her moms Mexican and Guatemalan roots. As she learns more about this side of her heritage, Sarah starts to understand her mom betterand starts to face her own grief. When she stumbles upon a long-buried piece of history that mattered deeply to her mom, Sarah realizes she cant carry her pain silently anymore. She has to speak up, and she cant do it alone.
