Book’s Description

Two girls. Two different worlds. And the God who sees them both. Doyinsola is the "perfect" daughter. At twenty, she’s a third-year medical student carrying the heavy weight of her mother’s pride. But behind the good girl mask, Doyin is exhausted.

She’s been running from a past she hates and a God she thinks is judging her. But when she falls into the trap of the powerful Professor Adebisi, her secrets become a prison.

As the walls of her life close in, Doyin must face the ultimate question: Can she keep hiding, or will she finally surrender to the God who has been watching her all along? Amalia is fourteen, wealthy, but broken.

Raised in a home where love is measured by her father’s rigid standards, she has become as cold and unforgiving as the world around her. But as the Christmas break approaches, something inside Amalia begins to shift. For the first time, the concept of God’s forgiveness feels real, and terrifying.

In a moment of desperation, she makes a secret Christmas wish, a test for a God she barely knows. Will He answer, or is she truly as alone as she feels? Two girls. Two different worlds. One shared struggle to find an identity beyond the masks they wear.

In the midst of trauma, betrayal, neglect and the chaos of the world around them, they are about to discover that El Roi—the God who sees—is closer than they ever imagined. When your world falls apart, who do you turn to?
