Young Love Faces Racism, Disapproval in Compelling Teen Novel

Jazelle doesn’t fit into her mostly white suburban neighborhood.  She doesn’t fit in with her popular, sexually active friends.  She doesn’t even fit in at home where her father is too quick to judge people by the color of their skin. And it all gets much, much worse when she realizes she has strong feelings for her best friend Riley. Jazelle is smart enough to understand that dating Riley is going to open up a world of trouble.  Racism isn’t a one way street and between her domineering friend Camille and her controlling father, Jazelle knows that she’d be better off forgetting her ill-suited Romeo. So why is being with him the only thing in her life that feels right?
