| | Synopsis
|
The day after Liyana got her first real kiss, her life changed
forever. Not because of the kiss, but because it was the day her
father announced that the family was moving from St. Louis all the way
to Palestine. Though her father grew up there, Liyana knows very
little about her family's Arab heritage. Her grandmother and the rest
of her relatives who live in the West Bank are strangers, and speak a
language she can't understand. It isn't until she meets Omer that her
homesickness fades. But Omer is Jewish, and their friendship is
silently forbidden in this land. How can they make their families
understand? And how can Liyana ever learn to call this place home?
