Publisher's Synopsis
Leshaun is a sassy and intelligent tenth-grade girl in Queens who lives in the projects with hopes of not becoming a product of her environment. She wants to be a famous R & B singer so bad to escape from the street-corner life her best friend, Bree, and family seems content with. While Leshaun doesn't care about boys, her bestie is hot as a firecracker, loves money, and always looking to get it poppin'. While Bree is fascinated with the drug dealer lifestyle their brothers live, Leshaun detests it. She doesn't want to be caught up in the life that surrounds her even though it's tempting. Just when she's used to her daily routines, seventeen-year-old Davion comes into the picture and changes everything. Since she's never had a boyfriend before, she's not sure how to act, but he's not the average cutie from around the way. He has goals, dreams, and aspirations. With him, she not only realizes that she's feeling him, but she also finds that he can actually help make her dreams come true.
