**Essence bestselling author Tracy Brown's scorching new urban tale
about falling in love and one girl's descent into the murky and
unrelenting depths of drug addiction
**
Jada left home at the age of sixteen, running from her own demons and
the horrors of physical abuse inflicted by her mother's boyfriend. She
partied hard, and life seemed good when she was with Born, the
neighborhood kingpin whose name was synonymous with money, power, and
respect. But all his love couldn't save her from a crack addiction. Jada
goes from crack addict and prostitute to survivor and back again before
she finds the strength to live for herself and come out on top. And her
stormy romance with one of the fiercest hustlers on the streets makes
White Lines one of the most unforgettable urban loves stories of the
year.
