This book will be essential reading for scholars, students, businesses, and policy makers with an interest in H&T in Africa.

"It was such a unique and introspective experience, seeing the different kinds of love Serenity had experienced through her life and to be able to learn from something that didn't happen to me but felt like a distant memory." Inspired by ‘To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before’… Serenity likes writing on paper. From planning assignments to seeking closure by writing love letters. Serenity has always admired the art of romance. When did letters become traditional? She grew up with love being apparent in all aspects of life. Every time, she loved someone, she gave her all and couldn’t resist loving them back with every piece of her heart. When they weren’t a part of her life anymore, she found comfort in writing down her thoughts and feelings on pieces of paper. These seven boys contributed something to her life, whether it was Troye’s enthusiasm, Mark’s confusion, August’s teachings, Silas’ friendliness, Justin’s loyalty, Kaleb’s mystery and Raymond’s love. She knew closure was impossible. So, she wrote. The letters stayed hidden away until one drunk night, Serenity sent them. Now there is no way of undoing her actions and she simply isn’t ready to face the consequences of her new future being dictated by the boys from her past.
