Description
Tabitha Williams doubles as a punching bag every time her boyfriend
drinks one too many. When she stabs him and flees to her mother’s house
with her three-year-old daughter, she thinks it’s finally over.
Unfortunately, the drama has just begun! “Will she find the courage to
leave him for good? And will he let her?” Lisa Perkins is the “strong
one,” or at least that’s what Tabitha and Shanice think. However, this
couldn’t be further from the truth. When she leaves her home after her
mother refuses to believe that her stepfather has raped and impregnated
her, she thinks that distance will solve everything. She finds that she
couldn’t be more wrong. Shanice Thomas is giving teenage rebellion a
whole new meaning. Her mother recently found Christ, and the party that
was Shanice’s life is apparently over. Thrust into situations she isn’t
equipped to handle, Shanice suddenly finds herself learning painful new
lessons about the consequences of sleeping around.
Praise and Reviews
Raw, authentic story telling featuring characters who are all too familiar to many of us. I will be looking forward to more from Julia in the future.
~ George Lopez ~ Author of "A Distant Battlefield"
This was a really good book. A group of friends that I can relate to. I couldn't wait to see what happened next and looking forward to part 2.
Great job Julia.

This is the first book I've read by Julia Press-Simmons. I loved it. It
didn't drag or get off point. The author did a great job with
characterization. I recommend this to all readers who love a face-paced,
drama-filled novel that keeps you on the edge of your seat.
~Teresa D. Patterson ~ Avid Reader
The story is very well written. I was engrossed and I almost didn't want
to finish the book. The characters stuck in my mind long after the last
page was read. Julia Press Simmons did an amazing job with this story. I
would recommend it to women every where. If you have ever been through
anything...this is a story for you. I look forward to the next book by
Julia.
