Publisher's summary

Being raised in the game by conniving, money-hungry, married-to-the-streets parents, the only thing 17-year-old Porsha Jackson was sheltered from was fairytales. Calvin, her father, is one of the most feared and respected drug dealers in the city, and Trinity, her mother, has a reputation for a firm hand and on-point aim. From hustling and grinding to balancing a few hours of school a week to keep social services off the family's back, Porsha has been groomed from an early age to hold her own and help run the family's business.

Now that she's a few months away from turning 18, she's anxious to be grown and have freedom from Cal and Trin's control. All she wants is to have a lavish apartment and cuddle up with her secret boo, Elvin Street Thomas, who also happens to be one of her father's most trusted street hustlers. By the time shorty finds out she's too grown and in way over her head, the snake has already slithered his way into her heart, and the Jackson family will be hit with the worst luck ever.

The ending, was like the beginning to a new chapt

it was a really good listen. I could see everything in my head... the narrator's... yikes. but, the story .. dope. I'm hoping there's a part 2... the ending seemed like the opening of a new book.

The Word Play Had My Attention

Wish I could have been been as witty as the characters in this book. I guess that's why I'm not where they are. Overall, the story was entertaining and had me laughing the entire story.

Narrator

The wrong female narrator for the story. Her voice doesn't fit the character. Sounds like she's trying too hard.

The Narrators Are Horrible!!!’

The story was good but the narrators kept it from being believable. They both needed more Southern/Midwest twang…

It’s ok I understand

So no sooner than I got all the way caught up in the story the story ended. Don’t know what happened to the characters or how it end’s which is upsetting for two reasons, one the story itself was great the male narrator needs work. Two I was really looking forward to the plot’s and twist that came next.

Love the readers!!!

It was a good book. The storyline was a little questionable. I don’t know if there is a part two to this and if there is, I don’t know in which direction they would go.

Good book

I didn’t really feel like the narrator’s voices matched the characters but I did like the storyline
