All the Way In, by Treasure Hernandez: Born into the struggle,
Sonya and Melody are far from living the good life. They're missing
meals, have no clean clothes to put on their backs, and are forced to
sleep in abandoned houses. There are zero possibilities in sight for a
legal come-up for either young woman.
The desperate teens have no choice but to beg, borrow, and steal if they
hope to survive on the savage streets of Detroit. In a twist of fate,
the pair link up, adapting a bloodthirsty, anything-goes,
what's-yours-is-mine attitude that they inflict upon all with whom they
come in contact. Sonya and Melody are made of no sugar, no spice, and
definitely nothing nice!
Escaping a Thug's Love, by Ms. Michel Moore: The Dexter
Linwood Area is one of the most notorious neighborhoods in Detroit.
Sable and Mike Mike were both born into that pure madness. When they
fall in love, the young couple soon becomes DLA royalty, and they
embrace all the chaos that comes along with it. Whenever he rocks, she
rolls. If she hustles, he grinds. Their gangsta lifestyle is
picture-perfect until Mike Mike starts popping pills and getting high on
the regular. Soon, bills are not getting paid, vehicles are being
repossessed, and shutoff notices become the norm. The last straw is when
Sable's jewelry mysteriously comes up missing. Now, the hood princess
wants out of their toxic relationship. Will Mike Mike let her go?
