Summary There are a lot of things Jamie hates about her life: her dark hair, her dad's Stone Age Charter of Curfew Rights, her real name - Jamilah Towfeek. For the past three years Jamie has hidden her Lebanese background from everyone at school. It's only with her email friend John that she can really be herself. But now things are getting complicated: the most popular boy in school is interested in her but there's no way he would be if he knew the truth. Then there's Timothy, the school loner - who for some reason Jamie just can't stop thinking about. As for John, he seems to have a pretty big secret of his own...To top it all off, Jamie's school formal is coming up. The only way she'll be allowed to attend is by revealing her true identity. Will she risk it all? And does she know who she is...Jamie or Jamilah?
