From bestselling author Jacquelin Thomas comes the first novel in a spin-off of her inspirational teen fiction series featuring divine matthews-Hardison and her friends.
Senior prom is only one day away and Divine’s friend, Rhyann Hamilton, is having a really bad day. She is in desperate need of major hair repair after her cousin’s attempt at styling has wreaked havoc on Rhyann’s tresses. In tears, Rhyann schedules an emergency appointment at an unknown salon only to end up with most of her hair chopped off, and not enough money to pay for the expensive appointment. Luckily, the owner is sympathetic and offers Rhyann a chance to work off the money she owes. Through this arrangement she meets a very special person who will challenge her, inspire her, and change Rhyann’s life forever...
Fast-paced, fun, and inspirational, It’s a Curl Thing features wonderfully engaging characters facing everyday challenges, as they try to find a balance between personal success and maintaining their Christian principles.
