Hot Girl - Dream Jordan

Descriere Hot Girl - Dream Jordan

In this absorbing novel, Jordan delivers a compelling slice of urban life as she tells the story of 14-year-old Katie, who has risen from the cracks of Brooklyn's notorious foster care system and is doing quite well. That is until she meets Naleejah, the new neighborhood fly girl. \n \nIt's summertime in Bed-Stuy Do or Die Brooklyn, and Kate is feeling down in the dumps. Not only is she tired of her raggedy, tomboy image, but she's also missing her best friend, Felicia, who's away for the summer. Lonely and not exactly getting along with her new foster mother, Lynn, Kate so badly wants to be out and about, twirling pretty, and partying---and maybe catching the attention of her longtime crush, Charles. \n \nOpportunity knocks one hot summer day when fly-girl Naleejah struts her stuff straight up to Kate and takes a seat. Full of smiles, Naleejah tells Kate that she remembers her from school, but Kate can't remember ever having such a fabulous chick trying to befriend her. Kate's suspicion turns to trust once Naleejah gives her a much-needed makeover. \n \nNow a brand-new Kate suddenly has the attention of her dream boy. But is Naleejah checking for him, too? Against Kate's better judgment, she ignores the warning signs, and continues to let Naleejah lead her down a treacherous path. Soon, what seems like a fun and exciting summer ends up being a harsh reality check. Now Kate must decide how to get back on the right track . . . or is it already too late?\n
