Some girls survive. Suga chose to live.
She didn't run from the past-she sat in it. Ate at its table. Slept under its roof. And somewhere between the silence of her mother, the steady prayers of her grandmother, and the complicated love of a boy who never knew how to love himself, Suga found the truth.
And the truth set her free.
Suga is a hauntingly beautiful coming-of-age story soaked in sacred southern soil. It's about a young Black girl learning that healing doesn't come wrapped in perfection-but in truth told raw, forgiveness offered imperfectly, and love that still shows up anyway.
Mama Bell loved with wisdom.
Dee struggled with demons she never spoke of.
Carlos offered a kind of love that burned-until Suga learned to rise from the ashes and love herself more.
Through heartbreak and revelation, betrayal and grace, Suga discovers that home isn't always where the pain happened-but where the healing begins.
Bold, poetic, and spiritually laced, Suga is for every woman who's ever had to piece herself back together with trembling hands-and dared to call herself whole.
