Description

Seventeen-year-old Sahar has been in love with her best friend Nasrin since they were six. They've shared stolen kisses and romantic promises, but their love is forbidden in Iran. When Nasrin's parents announce that she's to be married, Sahar discovers a possible solution: sex reassignment surgery could allow her to love Nasrin without risking their lives. This heart-wrenching novel explores the complexities of first love, identity, and the consequences of living a life that society deems unacceptable. As Sahar navigates this treacherous path, she must confront the ultimate question: is saving their love worth sacrificing her true self? Sahar's story is a powerful exploration of the human spirit, one that will resonate with readers who have ever felt like they don't quite fit in.
