With an ex-husband relocated across the country, her father bouncing back after the loss of his beloved wife, and her daughter, Xandra, thriving at boarding school, Nina is stepping into her dream job as a trifecta: a first-generation, Black female head of the storied Royal-Hawkins School. To mark the moment, Nina and her best friend, Marisol, take a long-overdue girls' trip to celebrate the second half of Nina's life--which is shaping up to be the best part of her life. As Nina's school year gets underway, all seems to be progressing as planned. Before long, wunder-hire Jared Jones, two hundred pounds of Harvard-educated ego, relentlessly pushes Nina to her ethical limits. Soon after, dutiful Xandra accuses one of her teachers of misconduct. And most alarming, the repercussions of her trip with Marisol force Nina into a life-altering choice. Time is of the essence, and Nina must decide if she will embrace a future she never could have predicted. 650 0 $a Friendship $v Fiction. 650 0 $a African American women $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Women $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Domestic fiction. $2 lcgft. 655 7 $a Romance fiction. $2 lcgft. 655 7 $a Humorous fiction. $2 lcgft. 655 7 $a Novels. $2 lcgft. 700 1 $a Youmans, Asha, $e author. 941 $a 11 952 $l GHPD771 $d 20240412010753.0 952 $l GUPF501 $d 20240411010050.0 952 $l VXPE964 $d 20240217013327.0 952 $l BRPD251 $d 20240119020928.0 952 $l CCPB522 $d 20231216010042.0 952 $l CIPB482 $d 20231018010635.0 952 $l YAPC771 $d 20230922010937.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20230913010408.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20230902014628.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20230802013003.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20230802012036.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=86AD516230FC11EEBC3B3D423BECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
