Kaiya Sora Samson's last year of high school is here. Finally. Her friends have been waiting for this day since the summer. For Kaiya, things changed over the years with the arrest of her brother, the secret that she revealed two days before her brother was sentenced and the divorce of her parents. Right before Spring Break, Kaiya finds out a secret that both her boyfriend and her best friend share and she feels betrayed beyond words. As hard as it was for Jarrell to confess to her, he hopes that Kaiya can forgive him. Kaiya runs away to New York just three months before graduation. With a new best friend in Brooklyn and a pocketful of money she's been saving for two years, she's off trying to figure out her path in life and see if what she's learned about God protecting her is really true. With an overprotective father, a naive and defenseless mother, and two best friends who have had her back since the first day of ninth grade, Kaiya has to figure out whether or not she will let the demons of her past haunt her into an early grave, or learn the power of her name's true meaning and overcome her childhood misery with love and forgiveness."
