Publisher's summary

It's a dog-eat-dog world - especially when all the dogs are hungry.

For a sheltered mama's boy like Demarcus, everything was coming up roses until a life-changing experience showed him that every rose has thorns. After a well-orchestrated set-up, Demarcus' plans to go to college are derailed by a trip to state prison. It is while in the belly of the beast that the mama's boy has to make the choice between being a man - or being a victim.

Upon his release, Demarcus tries to get his life back on track, but his felony conviction causes door after door to be slammed in his face. Going to college is no longer an option, and flipping burgers is not in his plans. With little other choice, Demarcus applies the lessons he learned in prison and takes to the streets, where he gets caught up in selling heroin, known on the streets as dog food. When all hell breaks loose between the major dealers in Memphis, over the city's heroin distribution, Demarcus finds himself on the losing side of a bloody drug war. As he prepares for the showdown with his opposition, he begins to uncover truths about his past, including what happened that fateful night of his arrest.

To add insult to injury, when he finally stands face-to-face with his enemy, he discovers that the face is a familiar one. They say that blood is thicker than water, but when it comes to cash, sometimes even those closest to you will try to do you in.

Well written and narrated!

This was my first time reading a book written by this author and I was not disappointed. The story and cliffhanger can’t wait to read book two. And as always, the Nicole Small is the best.

Better Than I Expected!!!

I never know what to expect with my included books. This was GOOD!! I was on the edge of my seat the entire time. This is definitely one of the better hood novels that I’ve listened to. The storyline is very believable. Book 2 here I come. Great Job Raynesha Pittman!!

Dog Food

This was a much better listen, I only fell asleep twice. The plot thickens near the end.

Uniquely different

I liked the storyline, it’s definitely not the typical drug dealer tale and I appreciated that everyone had their own demons. The insults and jabs throughout the book was absolutely hilarious (if you’re into dark comedy). All in all great read!

Lots of twists and turns

If nothing else, this story keeps you guessing. There is enough backstabbing and insecure love to go around for everybody to cause people's lives to be in eminent danger throughout the book.
