Description
Charlene, an eleven-year-old with a strong sense of independence, finds herself under the care of her new guardian, Merry, and she is far from thrilled about it. To Charlene, Merry's attempts at fostering a warm home feel clumsy and forced. The girl is determined to maintain her distance, all while navigating the upheaval in her life.
As time unfolds, Charlene discovers that perhaps Merry's intentions are more genuine than she initially believed. Amid misunderstandings and teenage angst, a unique bond starts to form, leaving Charlene to question her own stubbornness. Set against a backdrop of unexpected circumstances, this story explores the power of connection, acceptance, and the sometimes messy path towards understanding one another.
