Dew Angels by Melanie Schwapp

Deprived of familial love, affection and security, Nola falls victim to her father's abusive behaviour and struggles though society's harsh judgments of her black skin. Trying to overcome the brutalities in her life, she meets Dahlia Day. Their friendship opens for Nola another world, a world of tenderness and compassion, a world where Nola can rise above prejudices and reveal her true self - a world where love knows no colour. Dew Angels is a heartbreaking, courageous novel of broken lives healed through courage and hope.
