Lani never knew true love until she met Love. He was the brother of her best friend since junior high and he came at the perfect time. Lost in the streets, she was picked up by Love and shown how a real man should love her. Initially he seemed different from all other men; he was but not as far as cheating. Though he gave her things she never received from a man and showed her things she never seen, he also gave her something else she never had nor wanted - an STD. He took her out of her character, doing things she never thought she would do. He changed her for the better and also for the worse. Dealing with him also came violence from him hustling in the streets. As author Quaneysha Poindexter shares with you her life story of growing up in New Haven, Connecticut about love, drugs and violence, brace yourself for the blatant reality in her life. Though the majority of the events actually happened in her life, only the very ending did not happen but it does happen in other people's life.
