What to expect
Jada left home at the age of sixteen, running from her own demons and the horrors of physical abuse inflicted by her mother’s boyfriend. She partied hard, and life seemed good when she was with Born, the neighborhood kingpin whose name was synonymous with money, power, and respect. But all his love couldn’t save her from a crack addiction. Jada goes from crack addict and prostitute to survivor and back again before she finds the strength to live for herself and come out on top. And her stormy romance with one of the fiercest hustlers on the streets makes White Lines one of the most unforgettable urban love stories of the year.
Critics Review
“Brown’s epic explores New York’s ghettos of the 1980s and ’90s, following two characters caught up in the crack epidemic…Brown’s characters are sympathetically drawn, and the Goodfellas-like take on the gangster life is eye-opening.”
“This emotional book is wonderful from beginning to end thanks to plenty of plot and character detail, including background information on all of the characters. Readers should enjoy the themes of forgiveness and strength as the protagonists rise above their individual struggles.”
“Tracy Brown’s urban saga draws its strength on believable characters in extraordinary lives.”
“Tracy Brown does it again…White Lines will most definitely be a hood classic.”
“Tracy Brown once again proves that the art of storytelling isn’t dead.”
