Summary: "Nira Ghani has always dreamed of becoming a musician. Her Guyanese parents, however, have big plans for her to become a scientist or doctor. Nira's grandmother and her best friend, Emily, are the only people who seem to truly understand her desire to establish an identity outside of the one imposed on Nira by her parents. When auditions for jazz band are announced, Nira realizes it's now or never to convince her parents that she deserves a chance to pursue her passion. However, finding her place in the world is trickier than she imagined. As Nira navigates new friendships and a budding romance, the gap between her parents' expectations and what she wants grows. Can Nira find a way to have it all, or will she be forced to choose family obligations over being true to herself?"--Front flap of jacket.
