This book was a good read. Not as intense as Noire's other two books(Hood and G-Spot)I've read. This story is about a young girl at the age of 13 that is turned out into the streets because her mother doesn't want her to live with her and her drug dealer boyfriend any more. Her mother thinks she is coming on to her boyfriend, so she puts her out not caring where she goes. As the girl is leaving she starts to have alot of pain. As she is walking to find shelter she ends up at a housing complex that has a laundry room. All she is thinking about is getting warm and out of the freezing rain. As she gets closer to the place of comfort the pain gets so intense that she crawls into a dryer to inject her drug thinking the pain will stop and as she is about to do this the pain hits her so hard that she starts to push only to have pushed out a baby. So, the story starts from here and takes you on a roller coaster ride. This book will make you laugh and cry. To all that like to read Urban fiction, this one I highly recommend.
