Jon Chladek and Tanisha Blythe have a lot in common despite the fact that he's white and she's black. As exceptional engineering students at Georgia Tech, they see a lot of things the same way, but their dysfunctional families have their own ideas about what the two should be doing, and would go ballistic if they knew they were seeing each other. When the chance of a lifetime comes, they're faced with a big decision -- whether to take the chance and pay the price they know they'll have to pay, or lose their dreams by following what their families want them to do. A reader writes: "A great story, wonderfully told! A well crafted tale of two people brought together by life and adversity that then rise above their respective trials and come out on top." Another writes: "The ending was perfect; the story rather special. You took two people and made their lives mean something as they worked hard to achieve their goals while finally reaping the rewards of friendship and family."
