It was a good read BUT the pure immaturity and ignorance of the two main characters get on my last nerve. OMG! I just wanted to beat the snot out of both girls. At least London had an epiphany at the end so I'm sure she's going to be more understanding. I read part of Book 2 but I won't reveal what happened. You guys just have to read it. it's available now on Amazon.

Life lessons
Heartfelt story. London was forced to grow up fast and the responsibility she took on at such a young age was remarkable. Although she was portrayed as the bad sister, I didn't see it that way. India held a lot of jealousy for London, especially in the support she got from her daughter's grandparents. I felt India should have been happy that her niece was so loved. In addition, India was older, should have set an example for London, but instead, she didn't try to find a way to work and she was more concerned with checking on her baby daddy. I'm sure there were lots of resources for a teen mother in her situation.
I didn't understand the aunt's motive with her sister's estate. She appeared to be devastated that she hadn't made amends with her sister, yet here she was doing more dirt.
Overall, I thought this was an excellent story, worthy of teen group discussion. There were many lessons here. The struggle for teen parents is real and they need all the love and support they can get. And although these situations don't always have such a happy ending, I'm glad London got hers.

Really good...
This was a good read! However, I feel sorry for the sisters and their mom who only wants the best for the both of them. I couldn’t imagine being in either of their situations. This hatred towards one another is sickening, India as the older sister should be setting the tone for the both her and London. Both of their BD’s are some shit, they should stick together and not be so consumed with the having one up on the other. Rahiem would be getting the boot and I would take out child support on his ass. He would not be allowed to sit up in my house and not do shit. Dante, I would make his ass pay too!! I’m happy Jewels came out to be his. Let’s me get in to part two. I hope Ms. Denis is okay

Life lessons hurt the more.
This was a good read. I couldn't be it down until I was done reading. Families go thur so much behind close doors. Some families fix the problems and some families could careless as long as it doesn't disrupt their life. Life lessons hurt the more.

A really good book
I just happened on this book however, I didn't think it'd be as good as it was. I'd have to encourage everyone who reads to pick up this book. It was actually a great book.

Wow, this summary hooked me immediately! The family drama and sibling rivalry sound intense and emotional. I love that it dives into real struggles like teen parenthood and complicated relationships. I’m already curious to see how London’s revenge plays out—definitely sounds like a page-turner!

The way this ended truly shows tomorrow isn’t promised life is too short to hold on to anger and resentment

so sad
I hate that so much drama happened so London could find happiness for the kids and herself. Every thing got back to normal eventually

India and London are sisters but there is some jealously there. Both are teen moms and dealing with issues that comes along with that. India and Raheim have been together for a while. They already have a 2 year old daughter, Diamond. Now India is pregnant again. Raheim, is just there physically but doesn't help India with raising Diamond.
London, has a 3 year old by Dante. Although, he does nothing for the Jewels his parents have been a huge help to London. This is one of the reason India dislikes London. Dante's parents are very helpful. London and Dante's relationship didn't work out. They have their own problems to deal with
The sisters do different things to aggravate each other. There is enough drama in the book. Overall, the story is a 4 but there a few editing issues in the story. Also, the author did mix up the name of the characters a couple times. Still was a good book but I had to deduct a star for those things. I will continue on the read part 2.
