Books like Maya's choice by Earl Sewell
Maya's summer is shaping up to be unforgettable-- in both good and bad ways. First she's sent to stay with her grandmother for a month. Living in the city, Maya is too far from her friend Keysha and her boyfriend, Misalo-- and too near her rebellious cousin Viviana. When Maya finally comes home, her parents drop a bombshell-- Viviana is moving in with them. Her cousin has barely unpacked before she's creating chaos. Truth is, Maya kind of likes the way life is a whole lot less predictable with Viviana around. But her motives are up for debate-- especially when it comes to Misalo. And as Maya's little sister, Anna, grows more fascinated with her cool older cousin, Maya begins to see that following where Viviana leads has its price. And it could cost Maya her reputation, her relationship-- and maybe even her future--
