Coldhearted & Crazy


Book Description

When their parents are discovered brutally murdered in a ditch, Kenya and London are left orphaned, forced to navigate through the unforgiving streets of Detroit. They might be identical twins, but they are as different as night and day. With one fighting relentlessly to make it out of the ghetto, the other eagerly embraces true hood life and everything their deceased parents believed in: selling drugs, living fast, and even dying young if it means getting paid. Kenya's coldhearted and crazy, just like her Pops. Nothing is off limits, and no one else matters—not even her sister, if she gets in her way. Blood may be thicker than water, but in one sister's eyes, cash is king; it's her only family, and most definitely the head of her conniving household!
