the lives of street players clash with those of a straight chick who returns to the hood after her brother is murdered. when chi chi returns to her old neighborhood, she must turn to two up and coming "thugs"(javoo and cornelius) to get to the bottom of who killed her brother ralph.cornelius is an old boyfriend and the feelings between these two haven't quite died despite there being some animosity due to the history between javoo, cornelius and her brother ralph. chi chi must decide whether to let the police handle her brothers murder case or allow street justice to prevail.when she sees that the police are  doing nothing to solve the case, chi chi knows that she must become a "ride or die" chick in order to get to the bottom of this case and vindicate her brother. the reader will be drawn into this story as soon as they start to read it. there was never a dull moment and i'm sure that any reader will enjoy this book from start to finish. the characters are well developed and it is clear to me that the author used  what many would say had been a bad experience to his advantage. the story line didn't seem forced and flowed smoothly with no lapses in it's continuityZandra BarnesAAMBC Reviewer
