  Trailblazing author, Marianne K. Martin asks, "How much are you willing to sacrifice to protect your students and the woman you love?" in this powerful and timely novel. 
   
   
   
  Johanna Beals decided sixteen years ago to sacrifice everything to raise her daughter Kayla as a single mother. She knew it was the right decision even when it led to lonely nights and broken relationships, and even when adolescent secrets challenged their mother/daughter bond. But the decision to go it alone seems easy compared to the one she is about to face. 
   
   
   
  Secrets and bouts of teenage angst don't only challenge parents. English teacher, Miya James, has dealt with her fair share of them over the years. But Kayla Beals seems to be whispering to the wind, an act that stirs uncomfortable memories of Miya's fractured childhood. As the school year progresses, she finds she wasn't prepared for this student, for her mother, or for the sparks that add fuel to the teeming atmosphere of unrest, bullying, and homophobia that leaves her school district grappling with life-changing decisions for everyone involved.
