Description:
Born on the fifteenth of July, the day her mother died, Grace is branded a curse by her village. When her father brings home a new wife, Grace's world shrinks further. While her stepbrothers, Ethan and Leo, are cherished, Grace is the unwanted daughter—burdened with chores, denied an education, and fed on scraps of affection. In the shadow of her stepmother's cruelty and her father's indifference, Grace clings to one fragile hope: her brother Ethan's promise to help her escape. But when her stepmother hides Grace's high school acceptance letter, shattering her dreams, Grace must find the strength to fight for her future. Can she rise from the mud of her circumstances and bloom, or will the weight of her family's disdain crush her spirit forever? A poignant and powerful coming-of-age story about survival, the bonds that save us, and the unbreakable will of a girl determined to write her own destiny.
