It’s been seventeen years that have now passed. Two best friends in Chestnut Hill, Pennsylvania are talking about their summer plans before college. Kit has goals of traveling to Tokyo so that she can find out more about her Japanese roots. She also has support in her corner as her white adoptive parents are behind her on this.

This adventure is going to give her a taste of first love as well as an all new understanding when it comes to what it really means to belong. Sabrina had really wanted to take a trip to China that was similar, but unfortunately money is not as available to her for this purpose as she would like.

At the same time, Mimi buys a plane ticket to go to Philadelphia, at last having tracked down a lead when it comes to looking for her daughter.

When Sabrina, Kit and Mimi all come face to face with each other, they can take on the people that they really want to be. It’s a moving novel that is pushed to its climax that will surprise readers completely.
