Sometimes you just need a story to read not to figure out the mystery, deal with angst or over the top drama. This is just a story of a teenage girl navigating her teen age years trying to find her own identity, figure out her relationships and maybe find love along the way.

Nala has a rough relationship with her mother and ends up living with aunt ( never really told details on this) and now finds herself on the outs with her cousin. As they seem to be going apart she ends up dating a friend of hers. Only issue is she told a few half truths to be more interesting to him.

We as the reader feel her conflict over coming clean or keep the falsehood going. When she is busted, her boyfriend and her cousin won't speak to her. This forces Nala to look at her actions, decide what to fight for and decide if she needs to figure out her whole life now or just enjoy the ride
