The days of innocence came to an abrupt end and tough years followed. Najwa finds solace in her visits to the Mosque, the companionship of the Muslims she meets there, and in the hijab she adopts. Her dreams may have shattered, but her awakening to Islam has given her a different peace. Then she meets a younger man, and slowly they fall in love.
