Publisher's Synopsis
Antwon has always thrived in the shadows of the streets. Born into the powerful Demon family, he's made a name for himself running the streets of L.A. with a stable of women and hustling for money, always living fast and recklessly. But the weight of his brother's death and the relentless grind of street life is starting to wear him down. Now at thirty-nine, Antwon is at a crossroads-torn between the allure of his old life and the dream of something better with his ride-or-die, Lovely.
Lovely has been his top girl, making money and loving Antwon in a way no other woman could. Together, they've built an empire, but the cost is starting to show. As Antwon struggles with the pressure of keeping the streets at bay, the couple starts dreaming of going legit-building a future outside the game.
But the streets don't let go that easily. Rivalries heat up, alliances are tested, and when tragedy strikes, Antwon must decide whether to continue running the game or finally break free to save himself and those he loves.
Set in the gritty underworld of Los Angeles, Antwon: Be Her Lost Boy is a story of survival, love, and the price of redemption. For those brave enough to chase a better life, escape is possible-but not without sacrifice.
In a heart-wrenching climax, Antwon must make a choice that will define the rest of his life. Will he succumb to the allure of the streets that have claimed so many before him, or will he find the strength to break free from the cycle of violence and pain that has haunted his family for generations?
