Between Venus and Mars

Raised as a boy and home-schooled by her single mother, Jessie Jacks is unlike other girls and boys. Jessie is an intersex child born both male and female, although her countenance and physical appearance are strikingly female. After the death of her mother, she is placed in the care of her aunt where she is faced with a whole new set of circumstances that she must adapt to - high school for the first time, issues of sexual identity, peer pressure, social prejudice, first love, and the biological, physiological, and psychological changes she experiences as puberty raises its ugly, or in this case, beautiful head.
