Blue returns with a gritty against-all-odds urban fairy tale set in the same unforgiving neighborhood as that of his breakout debut novel\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003eHarlem Girl Lost. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDesire was born on the streets of Harlem–literally. Her mom, a crack-addicted prostitute, delivered her on a bitter winter’s night after turning a trick and being brutally beaten by the john. Taken from her mother by the state, Desire grows up unwelcoming foster homes, until a local Good Samaritan takes her in. With Miss Hattie Mae’s love and Christian guidance, Desire gains confidence, joins the church choir, and discovers that she’s got a set of pipes–which soon attract the attention of hip-hop’s biggest exec. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut the road to superstardom is paved with dangers and temptations: drugged-out, violent rappers, untrustworthy pro athletes promising romance, and vicious drugs. Despite her phenomenal success and Miss Hattie Mae’s kindness, Desire seems destined for a fall from the top that will slam her back onto the pavement where her mama left her–until an unexpected angel picks her back up. . .  .","brand":"One World","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43375540863231,"sku":"9780345493286","price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9780345493286_s600x595.jpg?v=1775587526","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9780345493286","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
