Out of stock

Amerley is not your average teenager–well, she does love books and fashion and her boyfriend, Nikoi, but that is where the similarity ends. She’s become a mother and a father to her three younger sisters, not that she minds because family means everything to Amerley. When financial constraints make her relocate to a plush neighbourhood in East Legon, she puts her own dreams aside in order to be a maid to make her family’s life better. But how far should her self-sacrifice go? Doesn’t her own life matter? Will she always put her family first even when it puts her own life at risk?
