O knihe

Connie and Oletha are like two peas in a
pod. After meeting for the first time on a Sunday afternoon
after one of Reverend Pete's dynamic sermons at the local
church, the fair-skinned Connie and the cocoa brown Oletha
connect immediately and two strangers become best friends
right then and there.
As the young girls become
closer, they talk about boys during weekly youth sessions at
church. While Oletha excitedly describes Leon, a high school
athlete who is handsome, muscular, and a soon-to-be-lover,
Connie's mind is occupied with thoughts of Melvin, a young
churchgoer. But on a hot summer evening while walking to the
country store, Oletha and Connie realize that everything in
life can change in an instant. Leon stops to offer them a
ride and asks Connie-who has always been mesmerized with
Oletha's descriptions of the attractive athlete-to ride up
front. As an already hot summer night becomes even more
heated, Connie must face a monumental decision.

Torn between the advice of her churchgoing mother and the
advice of her best friend, Connie knows that the choice she
makes is going to bring unpredictable changes to not only
her life, but the lives of others.
