Desperate to please, she'll happily cater to her family's needs. But Ikemefuna soon discovers what it actually means to live with her in-laws. Demands for a grandson grow urgent, her every move comes under scrutiny, and the America she imagined from Nigeria shimmers almost as distantly through the locked windows of the Sugar Land house, unattainable. As Ikemefuna finds there's no way out, her new husband Nna, a corporate attorney, grapples with the influence of his parents against his own increasing affection for her, juggling their deeply traditional expectations with his own. As family secrets boil to the surface, Ikemefuna must decide how to scrape herself out of an impossibly sticky situation: a marriage succumbing to generational cycles of pain and silence. In the end, she may be carrying the greatest secret of all."-- Publisher.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   CLOSED TEMPORARILY: Honokaa Public Library Adult Fiction Nworah Checked out 06/30/2024 Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Adult Fiction Nworah Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Fiction Nworah Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kealakekua Public Library Adult Fiction Nworah Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Laupahoehoe P/S Library Adult Fiction Nworah Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Fiction Nworah Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Salt Lake-Moanalua Public Library Adult Fiction Nworah Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Thelma Parker Memorial P/S Library Adult Fiction Nworah Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Waikiki-Kapahulu Public Library Adult Fiction Nworah Checked In   Add Copy to MyList
