To cope with painful family circumstances following her mothers death, Melinda Atwood did the only sensible thing: she ran away from home. Choosing as distant a destination as possible, Atwood landed in Kenya. She planned to spend a year, but stayed for six, attempting to build a new life out of the wreckage of the old. Isolated and alone, she struggled with financial deprivation, a disastrous love affair, and raising her son, Jake, on her own. But as each challenge was met, there came a gratifying sense of Yes, I can! She built a house and ran a small carpet business, slowly conquered her fears, and discovered new strength and resourcefulness. Melinda was becoming the kind of woman she had always admired.Among the tales of the wonders of Africa, larger-than-life characters, and daily occurrences, is woven the heartwarming story of Mildred Nzike. With little in common but sons the same age, these two women, one black and one white, built a unique connection. Drawn together by mutual respect and dependence, they formed a friendship that broke all the colonial rules about relationships between the races. Told with refreshing honesty and incisive wit, Melinda Atwoods is an inspirational story of determination, hope, and courage
