That tension can hurt.
And it can also be the beginning of something honest.
In When Your Family Says No, Laya Martinez shares the story of choosing love and personal truth while navigating the distance that followed.
This memoir is not about rejection. It’s about complexity. About honoring your roots while building a life that reflects your convictions.
With clarity and vulnerability, Laya explores what it means to redefine home, hold onto love, and step into true independence.
You are not the only one who has walked this path.
Read the story that understands yours.
