A Look in the Mirror

By Terrence LeRoy Baker

Book Overview

Life was rough for Kassandra. She grew up in an abandoned building with a drug addict mother. She never went to school, and before she knew it, she was turning tricks, which landed her in the Juvenile Justice Center, until her eighteenth birthday. As soon as she gets out, she considers her options. Kassie has no education and no job prospects-that is until she meets Papa Bear. Just like that, Kassie has her first pimp and gets to leave behind a life she hated from the start. With Papa in control, Kassie has the chance to travel and turn tricks for the big bucks, but Papa is cold-hearted and cruel. She finds her ally in a woman the other girls call Mama Bear. Kassie could continue down her dangerous path. She could reach the number one spot in the street game and push the other girls out of the way. She could chalk it up to loyalty to Papa and leave her family behind for good, including her only child. Or Kassie could take to the streets with nothing but the clothes on her back and find a way to live a life free from the cold control of heartless men.
