Description
Pecola Breedlove, a young black girl, prays every day for beauty. Mocked by other children for the dark skin, curly hair, and brown eyes that set her apart, she yearns for the blond hair and blue eyes that she believes will allow her to finally fit in. Yet as her dream grows more fervent, her life slowly starts to disintegrate in the face of adversity and strife.

Description
Fern and her mother live as servants in Wyndemere House, the old gothic mansion of the Davenport family. And her friendship with Dr. Davenport's son Ryder was never a problem... until they came of age. An intimate encounter following the high school prom brings the pair near-tragic consequences. But the real threat to their happiness is something no one can control: the past, and the truths that lurk there.
