Matt had loved everything about Emmy. He loved her freckled, luminous, magical body. He loved her free spirit. He loved the way she made everything special. He loved the future he saw for them when he found out Emmy was pregnant. And he loved her answer when her parents protested their decision to keep the baby: 'We'll just love
it, okay?'
But after five months, what Matt loves most about Emmy is what drives her away. Now he only has Mahalia to love. Is his love enough to make the two of them a family?
Full of emotion and gentle insight, Mahalia is the story of one teenage boy's struggle to be a better father than he knows how, all the while searching for direction in his own life.
