A Not-So-Simple Life: Maya: Book 1 (Diary of a Teenage Girl)

Fifteen-year-old Maya Stark seems to have it allâ€“fame, fortune, a Beverly Hills lifestyle, and an eighties pop star dad whoâ€™s making a comeback. But looks can be deceiving, and on the inside, Maya is miserable. Her parents are divorced, her dad is away on tour, and being biracial, she struggles with her identity. Then, to make matters worse, her mother has returned to using drugs and is quickly depleting their finances. In a plan to become emancipated from her messed-up mom, Maya takes a job on Rodeo Drive. Selling designer clothes compromises Mayaâ€™s earth-friendly â€œgreen girlâ€ values, but she is desperate.

Just when Maya thinks sheâ€™s got it all worked out, her life caves in. Her mom â€œembezzlesâ€ Mayaâ€™s savings and is later arrested on DUI and cocaine possession charges and is facing jail time. With nowhere to live, Maya is sent to spend the summer with her relatives. In the collision of two very different worlds, Maya must figure out where she fits inâ€“or does she fit in at all?
