Publisher's Synopsis
Ademir is an asylee from El Salvador, on edge, in trouble, and deeply alone. Rose is the treasured daughter of his white American boss, caring, trusting, and perhaps a bit naive. On a rural farm in Pennsylvania, they are drawn to one another. But Rose doesn't understand what she's feeling, and Ademir has reasons for keeping himself apart from others. To be together, their worldviews will need to change. On the outskirts of the little town of Worthy, can they find a safe place to belong?
