Tell Her the Truth: Before the Streets Lie
by Alexandrea Lopez

What if the streets could speak-and what if they were calling your name?

In the quiet heart of Saginaw, Michigan, sixteen-year-old Myla Alvarez lives a life defined by faith, family, and fear-especially fear of the streets outside her door. But when a mysterious note appears tucked inside a forbidden book, everything changes.

Drawn into a world she's only imagined-full of parties, secrets, danger, and discovery-Myla must decide whether to follow the rules she's always known or the voice inside urging her to break free. As Myla teeters between the protective grip of her mother's warnings and the thrilling uncertainty of new beginnings, she's forced to face truths about her identity, her desires, and her power.

With a poetic and raw voice, debut author Alexandrea Lopez delivers a coming-of-age story rooted in culture, resilience, and the unshakable courage it takes to step into your own truth. Tell Her the Truth is for every young woman who's been silenced, for every girl who feels unseen, and for anyone who's ever wondered if there's more waiting just beyond the block.
