Rosenfeld : a novel / by Kessler, Maya,author.; Thomas, Maya,translator.;
"A brazenly sexy and scathingly candid novel about a white-hot relationship and the two intractable characters who emerge from it transformed. Noa Simon is a thirty-six-year-old filmmaker who knows what she wants when she sees it, and when she meets Teddy Rosenfeld, an antagonistic, older CEO, she goes for the jugular. An electrifying encounter in a bathroom stall after their first meeting only serves to whet Noa's appetite, and despite Teddy's subsequent rejections, she is exhilarated by the challenge-and by her own insatiability. In her first power play, she takes a job at his office, setting up a battle of the wills that Teddy proves unable to resist. Their ravenous, volatile romance will ultimately unearth difficult secrets from both of their pasts, and finally force Noa to reckon with her deepest desires and most destructive impulses. Written with visceral intensity and voyeuristic precision, Rosenfeld is a propulsive tale of sexual abandon that titillates and interrogates in equal measure"--

When it all syncs up / by Ameyaw, Maya,author.;
"Ballet is Aisha's life. So when she's denied yet another lead at her elite academy because she doesn't "look" the part, she knows something has to change--the constant discrimination is harming her mental health. Switching to her best friend Neil's art school seems like the perfect plan at first. But she soon discovers racism and bullying are entrenched in the ballet program here, too, and there's a new, troubling distance between her and Neil. And as past traumas surface, pressure from friends and family, a new romance, and questions about her dance career threaten to overwhelm her. There's no choreography to follow--for high school or for healing. Aisha will have to find the strength within herself--and place her trust in others--to make her next move."--014+.Grades 9-12.
