Synopsis

Reuniting with her family and partying in Accra until sunrise? Part of the plan. Catching feelings for two very different boys? Definitely not!

When first-year university student Robyn Carter travels to Ghana for winter break, it's the first time she's been back since her mother's passing ten years prior. Not only is the trip the perfect escape from her father's academic expectations, but it's also an opportunity to finally learn more about her mother-the one subject he refuses to discuss.

The last person Robyn expects to meet is Osei Mensah, her grandmother's beloved neighbour and a budding photographer. The young creative is a big dreamer who wears his heart on his sleeve and is everything pragmatic Robyn shouldn't want.

Especially not when Osei's childhood friend, Kelvin Williams, is a charming pre-med student also visiting from her hometown-her exact type on paper.

As Robyn uncovers the truth about her late mother's past, logic and emotion begin to clash and she can't help but wonder if following her heart instead of her father's carefully laid-out plan, might be a shot worth taking after all.

Perfect for fans of Bolu Babalola and Jenny Han, this heartfelt debut is a modern coming-of-age story about restoring family, taking risks, and living life on your own terms.
