A true-to-life drama that has twists and turns to heighten the awareness of interracial relationships. The storyline puts us all behind the eyes of another race and lets us realize that race doesn't define relationships but rather our emotions. Set in the backyard of our lives, we can see that perception is not always reality. Fighting our own insecurities about interracial relationships may actually stop us from truly finding love.

The author's major motivation for writing this book was her own insecurities. Seeing other interracial couples left questions in her heart and mind and she set out to answer her own question....Does race define a relationship?

Besides being true to life, unique and relevant today, another quality of this book is the ability for us to laugh at our own inept way of hiding discrimination as it relates to our search for love.
