About this book:

Skylar Phakade, 28, is a fashion designer who falls in love with a man named Mduduzi Gumede. But there is one catch: Mduduzi is unemployed. They soon begin dating, but Skylar realises that in order for her new relationship to work, she has to keep secrets from her parents. Then she uncovers something even more unsettling – her mother is hiding a deep, long-buried secret.
This new romance from popular Facebook author Cathrine Phiri explores heartbreak, sisterhood and new beginnings.
