Over one relentlessly hot summer, two women's lives are about to collide in the most unexpected ways.
Mimi is a single mum in her twenties, looking to break free from her family's judgements and her church's oppressive, hypocritical gossip to establish who she is on her own. But a dangerous new romance could lead her into trouble...

Meanwhile, fifteen-year-old Abi dreams of emulating the life she sees through social media and helping her mother with the bills. When she's offered the chance to make money fast by helping a group of local boys, she and her friends jump at it. But soon they're crossing county lines, and Abi finds she's in over her head...

Could Mimi and Abi forge a bond that could free them both, at the heart of a community they've taken for granted?
A powerful commentary on the city we don't always see, this is the stunning new novel from Jendella Benson, the author of the acclaimed Hope & Glory.©2024 Jendella Benson (P)2024 Orion Publishing Group Limited Black Creators Coming of Age Genre Fiction Literary Fiction Heartfelt Feel-Good

The characters each stood out in their own right. I enjoyed the blossoming friendships of Abby & Mimi.
Juggling bad relationship choices as a young woman and unexpected motherhood, it's pleasures & struggling.
How deprivation can contribute to young women make major mistakes, but how we all make poor choices and some are detrimental and place young people in danger. I loved the book, it was well written and well narrated.
