Summary

Two high-school girls growing up in the inner city, one Japanese American, the other African American, hunger for basketball stardom and a life beyond South Central Los Angeles.

As a star basketball player in her last year of high school, Nancy Takahiro's life is about to change forever. Facing the fear of leaving home and wondering where her skill will take her, Nancy is not prepared for the complications that arise when she meets Raina Webber, a devoted, ferocious athlete, whose love of basketball is matched only by her talent for it.

A wonderful life and love story

This book takes you on a journey with the two main characters that deeply envelopes you in their lives. You feel their emotions and live the highs and lows with them all the way through. The end is emotional and almost brought me to tears. You have to read this book.
