However, because Latonya is black and Rudy's family is white, the foster care system is unwilling to make the placement. When Latonya, Rudy and Rudy's goofball friend, Stark, take matters into their own hands, each discovers a unique definition of family, as well as a few surprises along the road"--Page 4 of cover.
