Fast Life by Cassandra Carter

Good girls sometimes are attracted to bad boys.  The courtship can be fun and exciting. On the other side of the coin, the good girl can sometimes bite off more than she can chew when selecting to deal with a gangsters or wise-guy.    Kyra Jones, a young lady from Chicago accustomed to the “Life” witnessed the killing of her father at a very young age.

Due to losing her father over a decade ago, Kyra channeled her energy at being an “arm piece” for her boyfriend Makai.  Everything in Kyra’s world was going great until her mother announced the news that would turn this teenager’s life upside down.  Although Kyra is disheartened by her mother’s decision and totally against it, she has no choice and must abide by Geneva Jones to relocate.  


Many say you don’t know who your real friends are until a dilemma arises.  Relocating to the Island of Bahamas, Kyra soon realizes this saying to be true.   Reading this book throughout its entirety, I could actually envision the plot. I could definitely picture Cassandra’s book on a movie short on MTV.  It’s definitely a page turner created to entertain the young adult population.  Great job Carter on your first literary contribution to the young adult world.   I look forward to reviewing other books from your series soon.
