Amara has always lived a good and sheltered life, but as she enters high school she begins to question who she really is. Growing up, her mother and grandmother have always placed her on this pedestal. Amara is an academic genius and above all her peers, especially after an early promotion. She grew up with her classmates and even though she is exceptionally smart, she didn’t stand out. Upon entering into a new private high school for the wealthy and extremely gifted, Amara gets more than she bargained for.

Which means anything goes! Amara is faced with peer pressure, bullying, and even drugs. She experiences depression and feels all alone, which leads her to following the crowd just to have friends.

Depression, being overly conscience of her self-image, fitting in with the cool crowd, and adjusting to high school are just some of the issues young Amara will face in the search of finding out who she truly is.
