This was an exceptional urban story! I thought T. Styles provided a well written story with all the elements involved to make a true urban fiction tale. The storyline had a gripping, gritty spin & the characters, although horrific, seemed so real. I felt the abuse & misuse Harmony experienced as a child especially from her uncle & grandma was despicable & disgusting and only made her a more disturbed adult. Her actions--including having sex with a plethora of men to portraying her daughters as sons ( and having them believe it) made her way beyond treacherous. Definitely looking forward to reading more of this series as well as other books by T. Styles. Raunchy contain just about every raunchy deed a person can commit. This story has incest,child abuse, pedofiles, STD outbreak, teen age pregnancy, murder, baby swapping, drug dealers the list goes on and on. Harmony has only been loved been truly loved by one person and that was her father. After he was arrested her life goes downhill fast and she never recovers from the treatment of her family members. She continues the cycle with her kids and teaches them everything she knows which is absolutely nothing. Then this whole cycle starts over again with the kids.It was a good book it kept my attention but I think I'm more interested in seeing what happens with the kids. Harmony was just heartless and cared about noone not even herself. Yes she had a rough life and that is even an understatement but I knew her kids were in going to be in trouble and especially if she had girls. And she didn't disappoint in getting the Worst Mother in the History of Street Lit award. I thought her mother was bad and she probably would have been as bad as Harmony if she lived long enough.
