Truth or Dare cover

In Truth or Dare, Maya's summer takes a thrilling turn as she uncovers dangerous truths about her family's cosmetics business and faces tough decisions.

In Truth or Dare, fourteen-year-old Maya is less than thrilled about spending her summer with her grandmother at the family cosmetics business. Initially, it seems like a mundane way to pass the time, but everything changes when she encounters a group of passionate activists. This community is fervently opposing the dangerous practice of dumping chemical waste, and Maya finds herself drawn to their cause, especially to a boy named Bear, who ignites her sense of adventure and purpose.

As Maya becomes more involved with the activists, she is dared to participate in one of their protest missions. Unbeknownst to her, her grandmother's company is at the center of the controversy, and the stakes are higher than she ever anticipated. The realization that her family’s business might be involved in deceitful practices regarding their supposedly eco-friendly products forces Maya into a moral dilemma. She must navigate the treacherous waters of loyalty, family ties, and environmental ethics.

Truth or Dare is an intense eco-drama that explores the complexities of truth and deception. As danger looms, Maya is faced with a critical choice: will she uncover the truth and risk her family’s reputation, or will she remain silent and protect them? This gripping narrative keeps readers on the edge of their seats while prompting them to reflect on the impact of their choices and the importance of standing up for what is right.
