What to expect

A girl’s sixteenth birthday is supposed to be sweet, but for Summer Flynt, it was the day that her life changed forever. Young, fly, and beautiful, Summer is under the wing of her older sister, Trish. But when Trish steals something that doesn’t belong to her and gets involved in a lifestyle she can’t handle, she pays with her life. Summer soon finds out that she’s expected to pay back her sister’s old debt. With the entire neighborhood gunning for her, she’s a sheep amongst wolves and only sixteen on the block.

Ride shotgun with Summer as she’s forced to hit the streets, grow up fast, and learn hard lessons about survival, loyalty, and love. With $50,000 on her head, who can she trust?
