Wahida Clark was born and raised in Trenton, New Jersey. She decided to write fiction while incarcerated at a women's federal prison camp in Lexington, Kentucky. Crowned the "Queen of Thug Love Fiction" by Nikki Turner, the "Queen of Hip Hop Fiction" herself, Wahida's style of writing is the template for urban literature. When you read her novels, they are so real you are convinced of one of three things: you know the characters, you want to know the characters, or you are one of the characters.
New York Times bestselling author Wahida Clark is all too familiar with the truths of ghetto life. The first novel in her gritty series takes readers into the streets, where a wrong choice could be the last choice a person ever makes...
In a 'hood loaded with sex, brutality, and crime, three friends are at a turning point. They can surrender to the streetsand the murderous men who rule thereor walk a totally different path. But nothing is simple for women addicted to life on the edge. And everything has consequences...
Angel, Jaz, and Kyra are all leading double lives, torn between working hard to leave the ghetto behindand being dragged back in by the lying, pimping, drug-dealing men they can't seem to let go. From jealous rampages to bloody turf wars to rage-fueled vendettas, a tangled web of violence binds these women to the very place that could destroy them...
